Ontario's police watchdog has identified the man responsible for a shooting rampage in Toronto's Greektown as Faisal Hussain.
The Special Investigations Unit says Hussain is a 29-year-old from Toronto.
Police have said he was found dead after exchanging fire with police during the shooting on Sunday night.
Two people were killed and 13 others injured in the incident.
The family is out with a statement:
We are at a terrible loss for words but we must speak out to express our deepest condolences to the families who are now suffering on account of our son's horrific actions.
We are utterly devastated by the incomprehensible news that our son was responsible for the senseless violence and loss of life that took place on the Danforth.
Our son had severe mental health challenges, struggling with psychosis and depression his entire life. The interventions of professionals were unsuccessful. Medications and therapy were unable to treat him. While we did our best to seek help for him throughout his life of struggle and pain, we could never imagine that this would be his devastating and destructive end.
Our hearts are in pieces for the victims and for our city as we all come to grips with this terrible tragedy. We will mourn those who were lost for the rest of our lives.
