An apartment building where a security guard was killed earlier this month is being evacuated.

City staff, police and buses were on hand on Monday morning to assist residents escorted from the building.

CTV News Edmonton is trying to confirm the reason for the evacuation.

Harshandeep Singh, 20, was working as a security guard at the building when he was killed in the early morning hours of Dec. 6.

Evan Rain and Judith Saulteaux have been charged with first-degree murder in his death.

Singh had only been on the job for three days when he was killed.

Another man was shot in the building two weeks before Singh's death.
