Two London police officers were treated in hospital, one with serious but non-life-threatening injuries and the other with critical but non-life-threatening injuries, after being shot on Saturday.
According to London Police Service (LPS) Acting Chief Trish McIntyre, one officer has been released and the other remains in hospital.
"I extend my deepest sympathy to Mr. Cameron's family and friends," McIntyre said during a press conference held Monday morning.
As CTV News London previously reported, emergency responders were called to 621 Kipps Ln. around 5 a.m. on March 11 for an “unresponsive adult male.”
When officers arrived, they found a man with multiple stab wounds who was pronounced deceased shortly after.
The victim was later identified as Joel Cameron, 41, of London.
Over about 12 hours, police negotiated with a barricaded man, believed to be in possession of a firearm, inside the high-rise apartment building.
