Canadian police kill suspect over threat of attack
A Canadian man killed by police on Wednesday had indicated he planned to carry out an imminent rush-hour attack on a major Canadian city, drawing the attention of the U.S. authorities who tipped off Canadian police, intelligence sources said.
The man was killed on Wednesday during a police raid in a small Ontario town, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) said, but did not give further details. The National Post newspaper said that he had detonated a bomb at the home and was about to detonate another when he was shot dead.
Intelligence sources identified the dead man as Aaron Driver, arrested last year for openly supporting the Islamic State (IS) on social media and had been placed under a court order earlier this year restricting his movements. The FBI alerted Canadian authorities early on Wednesday that an individual was engaged in potential terrorism-related activities, sources said.
