One dead following police-involved shooting in Burlington, Ont.
BURLINGTON, Ont. — A 32-year-old man was shot and killed following an exchange of gunfire with police that also sent two officers to hospital west of Toronto, Ontario’s police watchdog said.
Five officers were involved in the shootout at a Burlington, Ont., gas station early Saturday morning, said Monica Hudon, a spokeswoman for the Special Investigations Unit.
“When the man exited the gas station bathroom there was an exchange of gunfire between him and five police officers,” she said.
She said four of the officers were members of the Halton Region police and one was a provincial police officer.
