The Edmonton Police Service is searching for a black Audi Q5 SUV linked to a homicide in the city's north end [1, 2].
Locating the vehicle is a critical step in the ongoing investigation into a fatal shooting. Police said the SUV was used during the commission of the crime and may hold evidence necessary to identify the suspect [1, 2].
The incident occurred in February 2024 [2]. The shooting took place in the Castle Downs neighbourhood of north Edmonton, Alberta [1, 2]. Investigators have released images of the suspect vehicle to the public to assist in its recovery.
Police said anyone who recognizes the vehicle or has information regarding its current location should come forward. The search is part of a broader effort to resolve the homicide case that has remained open since the event took place earlier in 2024 [1, 2].
Authorities have not released further details regarding the identity of the victim or the specific motives behind the shooting. The investigation remains active as police coordinate with community members in the Castle Downs area to gather leads [1, 2].

The release of specific vehicle imagery indicates that the Edmonton Police Service is moving into a public-assistance phase of the investigation. By targeting a specific make and model, authorities are attempting to narrow the search radius within the Castle Downs community to secure forensic evidence or witness testimony that may have been overlooked since the February 2024 shooting.
