Ontario’s police oversight agency says an officer who fatally shot a man who had killed five people at a condominium building should not face criminal charges.

In a news release Monday, the Special Investigations Unit says director Joseph Martino has determined there were no reasonable grounds to believe the York Regional Police officer committed a criminal offence and the file has been closed.
