Canadian Forces investigating armoury death


The Canadian Forces National Investigation Service (CFNIS) is investigating the death of a reserve soldier at the John W. Foote VC Armouries on James Street North.

Captain Tim Fletcher, the public affairs officer for the 31 Canadian Brigade Group, would only confirm that a soldier had died inside the armoury Saturday, but said further details could not be released.

The incident did not pose a concern for further danger to the public, he said.

Next of kin are being notified.

Hamilton police were also called in with the CFNIS Saturday and released the scene later in the afternoon, he said.

Hamilton police referred questions to the CFNIS.

[CANADIAN F0RCES]

This is at my armories.  :-[
We got back from a weekend exercise and were informed of what had happened. No information was given to us other than what was stated above. Such a horrible thing to happen, and not knowing if you know the soldier or not is a messed up feeling. My most sincere condolences go out to the members family as I have just lost my mother this summer while on course and I pray the family stays strong! I will have a special prayer for this member at our Remembrance Day parade.

Regular and reserve soldiers carry weapons off the amouries’ premises depending on the training, which is the case for battle fitness tests, Hatfield said. Trained regimental quartermasters and supply technicians supervise the storage of training weapons, which are held and accounted for inside the armouries, he said.

“The Canadian Forces have strict guidelines regarding weapon security,” Hatfield said. “I can tell you that the Canadian Forces’ accountability for their weapons is very high.”

Sorry this sound like damage control.



Everyone liked Stark, Hope a lot of people managed to go to his funeral today.
