An autopsy begins today in Sudbury to determine how a man died in Garson after barricading himself against police.
The 63-year-old was found dead in a home after a police tactical squad went inside.
The Special Investigations Unit says the man had a gunshot wound.
The incident began Wednesday evening when Sudbury police were told about a woman being seriously injured after she was shot.
Her injuries are not life threatening.
The man held off police until a specialty squad from Barrie went into the home early Thursday afternoon and found him dead.
