The Quebec bureau of independent investigators has been called in to investigate an officer involved shooting in Île-Perrot.
Police were responding to a call of a man who appeared to be suicidal on 2nd Ave. near Grand Blvd. late Sunday evening.
During the intervention, the officers said the man lunged towards them with a knife, forcing them to shoot.
The man died of his injuries.
Eight independent investigators spent several hours overnight collecting evidence.
Anyone who may have witnessed the shooting is asked to contact the bureau via its website.
