The RCMP in Moncton has just confirmed the suspect in the fatal shootings of 3 officers on Wednesday has been arrested. Justin Bourque was taken into custody at 12:10 a.m. Atlantic Time, and area residents have since been advised that the lockdown is over.
I'm amazed at their professionalism and restraint, and wish more of us appreciated what they sacrifice so that we can live our lives as we do.
We'll leave the discussion of justice - as if there could ever be such a thing in the wake of this unmitigated slaughter - for another day.
