On October 22, 2014, a gunman identified by police as Michael Zehaf-Bibeau fatally shot Corporal Nathan Cirillo, a Canadian soldier on ceremonial guard duty at the Canadian National War Memorial. He then attacked the Centre Block Parliament building in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, where members of the Parliament of Canada were attending caucuses. Zehaf-Bibeau was killed inside Centre Block in a gunfight with Parliament security personnel. The incident took place two days after an attack in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Quebec, which also killed a Canadian soldier.
