Ottawa police arrested a man early Wednesday afternoon in relation to a suspicious death in the city's south end.

Police were called to an apartment building on Carousel Crescent Tuesday around 6:15 p.m. after reports that a man was found dead. Officers found a 74-year-old man dead.

There was a police presence at the scene overnight and into Wednesday morning.

Just after 12 p.m. Wednesday, Ottawa police officers arrested a man on a second-floor balcony of an apartment in the building. CTV News crews captured the arrest on camera.

Officers told the man he was under arrest for second-degree murder.

"There is no murder, man," the suspect told officers.

Officers walked the suspect out of the apartment building and spoke with him for a few minutes before ushering him into a cruiser.
