The S-I-U says it has concluded its probe into the death of a
56-year-old man in northeastern Ontario. The police watchdog says

there are no grounds to charge any O-P-P officer with a criminal

offense after the March 28th incident in  Mattawa.  The S-I-U says officers

went to a home after getting a call about a suicidal man with a weapon.

They secured the area and tried to contact the man by phone but
were unsuccessful.  Hours later, officers heard a loud bang inside the home

and found the man dead in a bedroom with a gunshot wound to the chest.
