One Arrested After Health Centre Shooting

One person is in police custody after a shooting outside the Rainy River Health Centre.

OPP were called to the hospital Thursday morning over an incident involving a gun. No one was hurt or injured.

A spokesperson with Riverside Health Care reports some property damage in the parking lot. The incident did prompt Riverside to add additional security at all of its hospitals. Those measures were removed early in the afternoon.

Provincial police add there is no danger to public safety, and will provide more details when available.
