Ottawa police say they have arrested a suspect in the shooting deaths of two men on Monday.
Alam Gabriel Buoc have been the subject of a nationwide warrant until his arrest on Thursday night.
The 30-year-old man was being sought in connection with the deaths of 26-year-old Abdulrahman Al-Shammari and 27-year-old Dirie Olol, who both died of gunshot wounds Monday.
Police were also seeking a suspect in the shooting of a third man, who remains in serious condition in hospital.
Officers had responded to a hospital around 7 a.m. Monday for a report of a man suffering from gunshot wounds. Police later found the body of Al-Shammari in the city's west end, and the body of Olol in an abandoned vehicle.
Buoc is scheduled to appear in court Friday to face two charges of first-degree murder and one of attempted murder.
A giant ribbon will not hang in front of the White House. No marches

any other day. Little attention will be paid to the fact that
tuberculosis is now the number one infectious disease killer in the
world.
TB has long been the stepchild of the three major global health
diseases - AIDS, TB and malaria. A major reason why is that TB
primarily impacts people living in poverty, those who are voiceless or
whose voices are simply ignored. It is ironic that a curable disease
remains a disease fighting to gain attention.
It is also ironic that at a time when Ebola and Zika have put our
nation on notice about serious health threats, the same concern is not
given to TB, which can spread like wildfire just by coughing. We need
to look no further than Marion, Alabama to see how quickly TB can
overwhelm a city. TB in Marion is now worsethan in man...
