The SIU says Ontario Provincial Police arrived in the area of Highway 1 and Highway 17, where an officer and the man who had taken cover in the bushes exchanged gunfire.

It says the 60-year-old man was found dead and his injury was determined to be self-inflicted.

The OPP says they responded to a disturbance call at a residence on Gelert Road, and they discharged a firearm during the "interaction."

They say they can't provide any further information as the SIU has invoked its mandate.

The watchdog says multiple investigators are assigned to the case.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to come forward and contact the SIU.
