THUNDER BAY - The arrest of a senior in a long-term care facility in connection to the death of another resident is unusual, says Det. Insp. Jeremy Pearson with the Thunder Bay Police Service, but it is not entirely unheard of.

According to police, a physical altercation between the two Bethammi residents occurred on May 18, 2022. The male was seriously injured from a fall as a result of the altercation and succumbed to his injuries on May 24, 2022. Because it is now before the courts, Pearson could not provide many details on the case, the altercation that took place, or the history of the accused.

"We are really deeply saddened by this tragic event and we offer sincere apologies to the family and loved ones," she said. "Our staff followed all required processes in responding incident and we are grateful for their quick and compassionate response."
