The actions of some members of the Calgary Police Tactical team will be under the microscope following an officer-involved shooting Thursday night.
Police say members tracked a stolen vehicle through the city for about six hours before they tried to arrest the suspect in the southeast community of Auburn Bay around 10:30 p.m.
At that point, they say a second vehicle pulled up, also believed to be stolen.
They say a confrontation took place which resulted in one tactical team member shooting a suspect.
The person was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries, while two others were arrested.
No officers were hurt.
The Alberta Serious Incident Response Team has been called in to investigate.
