Man shot by London police now facing charges
London police have laid charges against a man who allegedly charged at police wielding knives and was then shot by an officer.
The 40-year-old London, Ont. man has been charged with three counts of assaulting a peace officer with a weapon and possession of a weapon for a purpose dangerous to the public peace.
The incident happened on Tuesday night, when officers were responding to a domestic incident on Dufferin Avenue east of Wellington Road.
Ontario's Special Investigations Unit says police located a male suspect who then ran toward the officers armed with knives.
At that point, two officers used stun guns and a third his firearm. The suspect was left with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
The SIU is investigating the incident.
