1496...Cop Killed In Ottawa

From the Ottawa Citizen, sad news:


An Ottawa police officer has been killed in a stabbing in the Emergency
Room at the Ottawa Hospital Civic Campus.

Police say one man has been arrested in connection with the incident,
which occurred at the hospital about 4:30 a.m.

The name of the officer has not been released.

Yellow police crime tape can be seen outside the emergency room
entrance, but the ER remains open, said Nicolas Ruszkowsi, vice-president of
communications for the hospital.

Police Chief Vern White is to hold a media briefing Tuesday
morning.


It is the first death of an Ottawa officer in the line of duty since
1983, when Const. David Utman was shot in an altercation at a city shopping
centre.
