MOSCOW, October 23 (RIA Novosti) - Three people, who were injured as a result of the shooting in Ottawa, Canada, have been discharged from hospital, the Ottawa Hospital stated.
"We can confirm that all three patients involved in today's incident have been discharged. We wish them a speedy recovery," the hospital announced through its Twitter account on Wednesday evening.
The Ottawa Hospital earlier reported that four people had been hospitalized as a result of the shooting in Ottawa. One of the injured, however, later died from the wounds received. The state of the other three patients was considered as stable.
On Wednesday morning, a soldier, guarding the National War Memorial in Ottawa, was shot dead by an unidentified gunman. Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, 32, has been named as a potential suspect in the shooting. Reportedly, he is of Algerian descent and was born in Canada.
An investigation is currently underway in Ottawa, with residents having been advised not to approach the shooting sites and "stay away from windows and off roofs".
The incident comes just two days after a member of the Canadian Armed Forces was killed in a car attack in the city of Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu in Quebec.
