Friends have identified one of the dead as Ryan Langlois. “It stuck to me all the time. It gave me a place to live when I needed a place to live. He was my friend. He talked to me. “He could talk to me about things he could not talk to other people about,” said Mandy Bouzane, a friend of Langlois’. Police say they responded to a report of homicide and possible hostage-taking at the marina at 1:45 a.m. Monday. Police, including members of the Emergency Team, arrived and found a dead man. They decided that there were no more hostages. Police say they have located the man who was the subject of the initial call and who allegedly had a gun. The IIO is investigating the RCMP’s actions in the shooting involving police. Shots were fired and the man was pronounced dead at the scene. “She was laughing all the time and joking. “He did not deserve to die,” said Buzan. Langlois’s friend has questions. “What would bring someone to really shoot him?” “I do not know how he could have reached such a level of violence,” Bouzane said. Langlois lived on the Minyachta for many years as he tried to establish his Shoreside Seafood business selling geese, sea urchins and algae. “I already miss him. I will not be able to call my friend. “I’m sorry he left,” Buzan cried. He was also the father of a 16-year-old son and in recent months had learned that he also had a nine-year-old daughter. The other man’s name has not been released. [email protected]
