Calgary police are investigating a homicide outside a southwest elementary school in what they are calling a “targeted incident.”
Police were called to John Costello Catholic School in Strathcona Park around 7:30 a.m. on Tuesday where an unidentified woman was found suffering stab wounds.
Officers tried to help the woman but she was declared dead at the time.
A second body, the suspect, was also found dead nearby.
Insp. Scott Neilson said the killer had been charged recently and released with a “no contact order.”
Police said the incident is believed to be ’domestic in nature’ and the identities of the victims will not be released in order to protect the privacy of the family.
Neilson said it doesn’t appear any children witnessed the murder.
Investigators will remain on scene near the school as they speak with witnesses and gather more information.
