At approximately 11:45 p.m., Monday, Dec. 22, 2025, West Branch Patrol responded to the report of a two-vehicle collision in the area of 180 Street and 118 Avenue. It was reported to police that a 2018 Audi Q5 was travelling westbound on 118 Avenue between 178 Street and 184 Street when it lost control, nearly leaving the roadway, and struck the back of a car hauler trailer that was parked on 118 Avenue.

EMS responded, treated and transported the 37-year-old male driver and a 35-year-old male front passenger to hospital with serious, life-threatening injuries where they both remain in stable condition. A 32-year-old female passenger who was in the rear of the SUV succumbed to her injuries on scene. The driver of the car hauler did not report any injuries.

EPS Major Collision Investigations Section (MCIS) continues to investigate. Speed is believed to be a factor in this collision.

Kamlesh Patel with EPS Major Collisions Investigation Section. “As we approach 2026, the EPS would like to remind motorists to slow down and drive with care so we can all arrive home safely in the new year.”

July suspicious death concluded as non-criminal

A suspicious death that took place in central Edmonton in July has been deemed non-criminal.

On Monday, July 21, 2025, at approximately 10:30 a.m., Northwest Branch Patrol responded to reports of an assault during an altercation at a residence in the area of 93 Street and 116 Avenue. When police arrived, they located an injured 68-year-old male. He was treated and transported by EMS to hospital with life-threatening injuries.

Despite lifesaving efforts by EMS and EPS members on scene, the injured male succumbed to his injuries in hospital.

A 48-year-old male was arrested on scene and later released. The two men were known to each other.

The Edmonton Medical Examiner completed an autopsy on Tuesday, July 22, 2025, and the cause and manner of death were undetermined pending further testing. The Medical Examiner has since determined the manner of death was not criminal. As such, the deceased’s identity cannot be released.

Homicide investigators consulted with the Alberta Crown Prosecution Service regarding the possibility of laying charges, and have determined that there is no likelihood of conviction due to the evidence that the death was not criminal.

Police seek additional complainants following sexual assault at shopping centre

17 Dec 2025 21:10:00 UT

The Edmonton Police Service (EPS) is seeking to identify additional complainants, following a sexual assault in a shopping mall in late November.

On Thursday, Nov. 20, 2025, police responded to a reported sexual assault at West Edmonton Mall. It was reported to police that a woman was riding an escalator, when a man approached her from behind and intentionally squirted an unknown substance resembling semen onto her back and buttocks.

Through investigation, police have learned the male followed and approached approximately seven women that day in a similar way, between the hours of 3 p.m. and 4:30 p.m., without their knowledge. Investigators believe the male was targeting shorter women in their early twenties with dark hair who were walking alone in the mall.

“Our investigation suggests this suspect has likely done this before and we believe there may be other women who were not aware of the assault at the time and only realized after noticing their clothing was soiled,” says Cst. Bryn Petch with EPS West Division. “If you’ve had a similar experience while shopping, we encourage you to contact us as soon as possible.”

The suspect is described as white male in his 20s who is approximately 6’4” tall with a medium build. He was wearing a red toque, a red plaid jacket and glasses at the time of the incident.

“This behaviour is unacceptable. Whether a substance is real or an imitation does not change the seriousness of what occurred,” says Staff Sergeant Christa Laforce with the EPS Sexual Assault Section. “The context of these incidents is concerning, and acts intended to sexually violate, humiliate, or degrade another person will be treated as sexual assault. We want the public to understand that this behaviour is taken very seriously, and victims are encouraged to come forward.”

Police are asking anyone who may have been approached or targeted in a similar way on Nov. 20, 2025, or on another date, to contact the EPS at 780-423-4567 or #377 from a mobile phone.
