Sarnia, Ont. police have announced the arrest of a man wanted in connection with a fatal shooting at Lambton College who’s been on the run for more than two weeks.
According to a social media post from the Sarnia Police Service, Kyaw “Chin” Doe was arrested by police on Monday.
Police say that on Monday, Sarnia police homicide investigators identified a residence in the City of London where Doe was believed to be hiding.
With the assistance of the London Police Service, including their Emergency Response Unit, the residence was contained.
Police say Doe “eventually” surrendered to police.
He was arrested and turned over to Sarnia police at the scene.
As a result of the investigation, Kyaw “Chin” Doe, 24, was arrested. He has been held for bail on the following charges for his alleged involvement:
- Second degree murder
- Attempted murder (two counts)
- Possession of a firearm while prohibited
“The Sarnia Police Service extends our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Dane Nisbet. This has been devastating to them and to our community. We hope that this arrest brings a small measure of comfort, as the grief of Dane’s loss continues to be felt,” Chief Derek Davis said in a statement.
In the early hours of April 10, shots rang out at Lambton College’s Lions Den Pub following an altercation between two groups of people.
Dane Nisbet, 20, was fatally shot.
Nisbet’s funeral was held on April 17, and was attended by hundreds of mourners, including Sarnia Mayor Mike Bradley.
Two other people were shot during the incident, and suffered non-life threatening injuries.
Three people have been previously charged in Nisbet’s death, including Odum Richard Bun, 23, charged with second-degree murder and who remains in custody, along with two Sarnia residents. Nineteen-year-old Johnathan Osborne-Walsh and Ava-Leigh Lightheart, also 19, are each charged with various offences, including accessory after the fact.
On April 18 Sarnia police canvassed a townhouse complex on Boullee Street in London, as it was Doe’s last known address before the shooting.
A $25,000 reward was offered for information leading to Doe’s arrest, which was later upped to $50,000.
