A 19-year-old man has died after he was shot by a Peel regional police officer at a residence in Mississauga on Thursday afternoon, the Special Investigations Unit (SIU) confirms.
In an update Thursday night, the SIU said the deceased male was a suspect in a stabbing that took place earlier at a home on Greensboro Drive in the Winston Churchill Boulevard and Britannia Road West area at around 2:30 p.m.
The SIU said “police received a call about an injured man at a residence on Greensboro Drive. It was later determined the man was stabbed by a family member in a residence nearby and was seeking help at a neighboring home.”
The stabbing victim, a 39-year-old man, was taken to hospital.
According to the SIU, Peel officers then attempted to negotiate with the stabbing suspect.
“Officers entered the residence, there was an interaction, a conducted energy weapon was discharged, and the man was shot,” an SIU release outlines.
The male was taken to hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
The SIU has now taken over the investigation.
The SIU is an independent government agency that investigates the conduct of police, among other officials, that may have resulted in death, serious injury, sexual assault and/or the discharge of a firearm at a person.
