A Windsor man has been identified as the victim in what Chatham-Kent police say they are now treating as a homicide.

Officers first responded around 12:30 a.m. on Tuesday to a report that a man had been shot, police said in a statement. Upon arrival at Towanda Boulevard in Erie Beach, they located a man dead.

Police said Thursday he has been identified as Michael Allard, 40, from Windsor and are investigating his death as a murder.

Allard's death is considered isolated, police said in a media statement Thursday.

Anyone with information or surveillance video related to the investigation is asked to contact the Chatham-Kent Police Service or CrimeStoppers to remain anonymous.

Relic of the Buddha loaned by China gets a warm welcome in Thailand
More than 2,000 people took part Wednesday in a procession to escort a relic of the Buddha lent by China to a shrine in the Thai capital Bangkok to honor the birthday of King Maha Vajiralongkorn and to celebrate half a century of diplomatic relations between Thailand and China. Loans of the tooth as a show of friendship have been an effective form of soft diplomacy by China, even though competing claims from various countries on possessing the Buddha’s tooth raise questions about its provenance. Representatives of China, including Beijing’s ambassador to Thailand, were also present, according to local media.
