Tuesday (June 3rd) at around midnight, a homicide occurred in a residential house in Burlington, west of Toronto: two men were dead, and one woman was injured and sent to the hospital. Currently, the Ontario Special Investigations Unit (SIU) and the Halton Regional Police have launched dual investigations.
According to the latest police report, the two deceased men were aged 28 and over 50 respectively, while the injured woman was also over 50 years old. The police refused to confirm whether they were family members but confirmed that they knew each other. Neighbors, however, revealed that the two deceased were father and son.

According to local English media, the Toronto Star reported: The SIU's press release this morning indicated that the incident occurred around 12:30 AM on Cornerstone Drive near Appleby Line and Dundas Street, a high-end residential community.
The police received multiple 911 calls reporting a disturbance at the residence. After arriving at the scene, a man fled upstairs and was later found with "suspected self-inflicted" wounds. Despite attempts by the police to save him, the 28-year-old man died on the spot.
Subsequently, a second male body was discovered inside the house, and the cause of death has yet to be announced. Meanwhile, a woman sustained minor injuries during the incident and was taken to the hospital for treatment.

Neighbors'爆料: Father and Son, Frequent Arguments
A neighbor told the media that around 1 AM that night, he saw police officers in tactical gear patrolling the streets back and forth, followed by emergency personnel carrying out a body from a residence.
Several neighbors also mentioned that there had been frequent loud arguments coming from the house in the past, so when they heard the commotion again that night, they did not pay much attention.
"We usually go to bed around 11:30 PM and heard shouting and screams around 12:30 AM, but we didn't pay special attention and didn't get up to check because such sounds often occur since I moved here in 2016," said a resident.
A neighbor revealed that the two deceased were father and son. They were Mauro Gennaccaro and his son Luciano Gennaccaro.
Police Used Taser, SIU Intervenes in Investigation
Since the incident involved fatalities and was related to police enforcement actions, the SIU intervened and launched an investigation.
The SIU stated that the agency had dispatched four investigators, two forensic investigators, and designated three witness officials to conduct an independent investigation.
The focus of the SIU's investigation is the behavior of the 28-year-old man. The unit has designated five witness officers and two involved officers. A police spokesperson said there was evidence indicating that a taser was used during the interaction between the police and the man, but investigators are still determining the manner of its use.
