Hughson said ASIRT has good surveillance video of the events that unfolded inside the Sears store. A police news release was unclear as to whether the suspect was wounded by a bullet only saying he was taken to hospital and is in stable condition. Just after 2 p.m. Saturday, a Calgary police officer shot a 20-year-old, machete-wielding assailant at the Sears in Marlborough Mall, after the perpetrator slashed the officer, who endured severe and significant injury. “She had very little involvement in the incident,” Hughson said, adding it’s not clear what her relationship with the suspect is. Hughson has Edmonton investigators in Calgary helping out the local ASIRT team as the province’s police watchdog has a look at the Marlborough Mall incident as well as another unrelated incident occurred just an hour earlier.
