Homicide detectives are investigating the death of a 15-year-old boy who died from injuries in northwest Edmonton on Tuesday evening. A man that police say knew the youth was taken into custody “shortly after the incident.” Officers responded to a report of an injured person at around 9:30 p.m. near 137th Avenue and 184th Street. They found a 15-year-old boy suffering from what police described as “serious, life-threatening injuries.” “Despite lifesaving efforts by officers and paramedics, the youth succumbed to his injuries on scene,” Edmonton police said in a news release Wednesday. The man was arrested and police are not looking for any other suspects. “The victim and suspect appear to be known to one another,” EPS said. An autopsy has been scheduled for Friday.
