Police investigate fatal shooting

Officers are currently on scene investigating a fatal shooting that occurred this morning in the northwest community of Bowness.

On Sunday, Nov. 15, 2026, at approximately 8:50 a.m., we were called to the parking lot of a Real Canadian Superstore, located at 3400 69 St. N.W., for reports of shots being fired.

Upon arrival, officers located one man who was deceased.

Police continue to investigate the death. At this time, this shooting is believed to be an isolated act with no active risk to the public. No suspects are in custody at this time.

While no road closures are in effect, we are asking the public to please refrain from accessing the area as investigators continue to work and assess the scene.

“While early evidence suggests that this is an isolated attack, we fully understand that any act of violence – especially in public – is alarming for the community,” says Acting Staff Sergeant Mark Neufeld of the Calgary Police Service Homicide Unit. “Our focus is on quickly containing the situation, identifying those responsible, and working with the community to gather as much information as possible.”

An autopsy will be conducted by The Office of The Chief Medical Examiner in the coming days.

More information will be shared as it becomes available.

Addressing gun violence continues to be a priority for our Service. Through investigation, prevention and enforcement activities we have co-ordinated our resources to reduce victimization and enhance community safety.

Our efforts to address this issue rely on strong community support. We are asking anyone who may have witnessed the incident, or who may have dashcam or CCTV footage from the area at the time of the shooting to contact police by calling 403-266-1234.
