BREAKING: SIU investigating after two people killed in Stoney Creek
In a tweet posted just before 1 a.m. on Sunday, Hamilton Police Service said that the situation, which they indicated stems from a “landlord-tenant dispute,” has been “contained.”
At around 10:30 p.m. last night, police asked people in the vicinity of 322 Jones Rd., near Barton Street, to “shelter in their basement as a safety precaution” as a barricaded male had fired shots from the residence. Hours earlier, Hamilton police had advised people to stay out of the area and told those living nearby that they must remain in their residence due to an “active situation.”
They said that the force’s Emergency Response Unit contained the area as negotiators communicated with the suspect “in an attempt to peacefully resolve the incident.”“The suspect later fired additional rounds, which resulted in an interaction with police,” HPS said.
