A London man is dead after a police shooting during a domestic violence call in the city's east end, the province's police watchdog says.
Ontario's Special Investigations Unit (SIU) is now investigating the incident, which happened on Wellesley Crescent, a small residential street near Trafalgar Street and Admiral Drive.
Police were called to a home just before midnight, the SIU said in a statement. Officers arrived to find a man with a knife in his hand. A teenager and man had been stabbed and a third man was uninjured, the statement said.
"There was an interaction with police and two officers discharged their firearms at the man. The man was taken to hospital where he was pronounced deceased," the watchdog said in a statement.
A 17-year-old girl is in hospital in critical condition and a 22-year-old man has been released from hospital.
An autopsy is scheduled for Thursday.
