Edmonton police released a second, clearer photo of a pickup truck they believe is connected to the shooting death of a 28-year-old man in downtown Edmonton last month.
The vehicle is described as a light-coloured, four-door Dodge Ram truck. Investigators believe there were a number of items in the truck bed.
Police were called to the area of 110 Avenue and 84 Street at about 6:45 a.m. on Saturday, Jan. 21, after a number of residents reported hearing gunshots.
Once they arrived, they found the victim — Ian Janvier — who they said had been shot multiple times. He was rushed to hospital where he died. An autopsy later confirmed he died of gunshot wounds.
