Friends and family have identified the two men killed in a shooting in the Superstore parking lot at 130 Avenue and 48 Street S.E. on Sunday night.
Sources tell Global News the men are Colin Reitberger and Anees Amr.
Police were called to the busy Superstore parking lot just before 8 p.m. Sunday after receiving a call about shots being fired.
When they arrived, police found two people dead.

Investigators believe the “pre-arranged meeting” between the three individuals involved was drug-related. They say the two victims, both in their early 20s, arrived at the lot together, then a third man showed up and shot them.
“It’s always a concern and it just goes to show … the blatant disregard and lack of respect that a lot of these individuals have for the community itself,” Insp. Don Coleman said Monday.
Coleman said one of the victims was known to police.
He added that the vehicle the suspect was driving has been recovered, but no arrests have been made at this point. Police could not say what kind of weapon was used in the shooting.
