Man arrested after being wanted on Canada-wide warrant in connection to homicide
Tyler Leonard-MacLeod, 21, was wanted on charges of second-degree murder
UPDATE | On Jan. 13, 2025, Tyler Leonard-MacLeod pleaded guilty to manslaughter and an assault that occurred while he was being held in jail. He was sentenced to seven years imprisonment, and with credit for time already served he has nearly five years left. He was ordered to submit his DNA for the national databank and is barred from possessing weapons for 10 years upon his release, among other orders.
A 21-year-old man has been arrested and charged in the shooting death of another man in the Carlington neighbourhood late last month.
Tyler Leonard-MacLeod was the subject of a Canada-wide warrant on charges of second-degree murder before his arrest in the death of Zachary Tiglik, 19.
Police said they were called to the 1500 block of Caldwell Avenue around 9:30 p.m. on June 29.
Tiglik was taken to hospital by paramedics but later died of his injuries.
Leonard-MacLeod was scheduled to appear in court Friday.
Carlington shootings
The day before Tiglik was shot, another shooting had taken place in the Carlington neighbourhood.
People in the area called officers about a shooting near Raven and Carlington parks around 10:40 a.m. June 28.
Officers found a 47-year-old man's body and have launched a homicide investigation.
The victim in that case was identified as Michael Quattrocchi from Ottawa.
Police have not indicated the two shootings are related.
