Father Of Three Fatally Shot Dead – A man who was fatally shot on this Indigenous community southwest of London was a father of three and resident of the territory, The Free Press has learned.
Middlesex OPP and Oneida police responded to a Clara Road property where a man was found dead around 8:30 p.m. Monday. Free Press sources have identified the deceased as Isaac “Ike” Doxtator, 37, of the Oneida Nation of the.
Doxtator had three children, one son, and two daughters, according to an obituary.
A visitation is planned for Doxtator on Thursday and Friday, followed by a funeral service on Saturday at a yet-to-be-announced location, the obituary states.
Harlo Cornelius, 43, of Oneida Nation of the Thames is charged with first-degree murder. He’s being held in custody until his next scheduled court appearance on July 28, court documents show.
Middlesex County OPP officially confirmed the identity of the victim Wednesday, also adding he died from a gunshot wound. The case is Oneida’s first homicide of the year.
OPP officers remained on the scene Wednesday at the Clara Road property, where two police cruisers and a forensic identification van were parked.
The killing happened less than a week after residents here held a protest against drug activity and crime in the community.
Oneida Chief Adrien Chrisjohn has said he will not speak with the media, citing the privacy of grieving loved ones and the ongoing police probe, but he did call the slaying a “shock” to the community of roughly 2,200, located about 30 minutes southwest of London.
“I hope our community can take this time to acknowledge the families impacted by this tragedy and offer our condolences and support to the families in these tragic times.”
We express our sympathy and deepest condolences to Doxtator’s family today and in the days, weeks, months, and years that are to come as they cope with his passing. May his soul rest in peace.
