Man Charged After Shooting Near Bridge

Police closed the Niagara on the Lake area down last week over shots fired, man surrendered to police roughly an hour later

A 62-year old Niagara on the Lake man remains in police custody after a shooting last week.

You may recall on Thursday afternoon when police closed down a number of roads in the Queenston Street area, near the Homer bridge, over reports of shots fired.

Roughly an hour after police arrived, a man walked out of a house and surrendered.

Police say Edgar G. Lefebvre has been handed three charges:

  • Careless use of a firearm
  • Possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose
  • Discharging a firearm — recklessness

He had a bail hearing this morning, but was kept behind bars.

Police add there were no injuries during this event.
