Here is the full text of a statement issued to the Associated Press (AP) by the parents of Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, the man authorities say killed a soldier at Ottawa’s National War Memorial, then stormed the Canadian parliament before being shot dead.

The mother of the man accused of killing a soldier at Ottawa’s National War Memorial then storming the Canadian parliament before being shot dead says she is crying for the victims of the shooting, not her son.

Canadian police have conceded there was only a single gunman in a terror attack that killed a soldier standing guard at Ottawa’s National War Memorial and then stormed parliament in a hail of gunfire.
