The two victims were initially treated within metres of one another, though, after the driver of the SUV pulled up to the scene with his wounded passenger, looking for help.

Police do not believe the shootings are connected, and say they do not appear random.

There are still no suspect or vehicle descriptions.

This is Edmonton’s 11th homicide of the year, which is the same amount the city had this time last year.
