All government and law enforcement agencies are working together on the case, he said.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau condemned the violent events overnight 颅as a 香蕉视频直播渢errorist attack香蕉视频直播� and a 香蕉视频直播渟enseless act of violence.香蕉视频直播�

Edmonton Police Chief Rod Knecht said a police officer was taken to hospital and treated for non life-threatening injuries. Four people were injured by the van, but the extent of their injuries was not immediately known.

It all began Saturday night outside the Edmonton Eskimos CFL football game at Commonwealth Stadium where it was military appreciation night.

Canada香蕉视频直播檚 chief of defence staff, Gen. Jonathan Vance, conducted the pregame coin flip and two CF-18 fighter jets did a fly-past before kickoff. More than 800 Boy Scouts were expected at the game and many were planning to camp out on the field afterward.

While the Eskimos were battling the Winnipeg Blue Bombers inside the stadium, outside a white Chevy Malibu approached a traffic control post at a high speed.

Edmonton police released grainy footage of a car ramming a crowd control barricade with a uniformed officer standing beside it. The footage shows the officer being tossed about five metres into the air as the car slams into the front of a parked police cruiser.

WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT:

The video shows two people walking by with their dogs rushing towards the officer on the ground but they run off when the driver gets out of the car, runs over and appears to starts stabbing the officer.

The police officer appears to wrestle with the driver on the ground and, at one point, it appears the officer is on top of the driver. Footage shows them both getting to their feet and the driver runs across the street while the officer slowly follows behind him into traffic.

Police launched a manhunt for the suspect.

Knecht said an Islamic State flag was found in the front seat of the car and was seized as evidence.

A few hours later, while fans filed out of the game and were re-routed around the crime scene, a U-Haul cube van was stopped at a checkstop north of downtown.

When the driver was asked for his licence, Knecht said the name on the identification was close to that of the registered owner of white Malibu.

When confronted, Knecht said the U-Haul sped off toward downtown with police cars in pursuit.

The van intentionally swerved at pedestrians in crosswalks, Knecht said.

香蕉视频直播淚t is believed at this time that these two incidents are related,香蕉视频直播� Knecht said. 香蕉视频直播淭hese incidents are being investigated as acts of terrorism.香蕉视频直播�

The name of the suspect was not released. Knecht said he was known to police, but there was no warning for the attack.

Alberta Premier Rachel Notley called the attacks horrific.

香蕉视频直播淚t香蕉视频直播檚 left us shocked at the indiscriminate cruelty and angry that someone might target their hatred at places where we gather with our families and friends,香蕉视频直播� she said in a statement Sunday, praising first responders for their work.

香蕉视频直播淗atred has no place in Alberta. It香蕉视频直播檚 not who we are. We are in this together and together we are stronger than any form of hate.香蕉视频直播�

In a tweet Sunday, Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale said 香蕉视频直播淐anada will not be intimidated by terrorist violence.香蕉视频直播�

Goodale香蕉视频直播檚 office issued a statement to say the RCMP香蕉视频直播檚 Integrated National Security Enforcement Team was working closely with Edmonton police.

香蕉视频直播淎t this time, the national terrorism threat level for Canada remains at 香蕉视频直播榤edium香蕉视频直播� where it has stood since the fall of 2014,香蕉视频直播� his spokesman Scott Bardsley wrote, adding Canadians should report any suspicious activity.

Another police press conference is scheduled for 3 p.m. Edmonton time.

Austin Elgie, manager of The Pint bar just west of the downtown core, saw the van zoom by with police giving chase.

The van 香蕉视频直播減eeled香蕉视频直播� into an alley where people were smoking, he said.

香蕉视频直播淭here were like 10 cop cars following him 香蕉视频直播� It was crazy. It just came around the corner, ripping. I thought at first he was pulling over for the cops coming by, but he was clearly the one they were chasing.香蕉视频直播�

Elgie said the van hit a man who was a bar customer.

香蕉视频直播淚 have a registered nurse on my bar team and I grabbed her and had her look after the guy until the ambulance came.

香蕉视频直播淗e was breathing and we got him in the ambulance and he was still breathing.香蕉视频直播�

The chase came to an end outside the Matrix Hotel, only a few blocks from the bar, when the van rolled on its side.

Natalie Pon tweeted that she was at a wedding at the hotel when the crash happened.

香蕉视频直播淭hey香蕉视频直播檙e keeping us away from windrows/the lobby,香蕉视频直播� she said.

Pon posted pictures of the U-Haul on its side with a large hole in the windshield.

Witnesses told local media they saw the suspect being pulled from the vehicle through the broken windshield and then placed in handcuffs.
