Our thoughts are with Melissa’s family during this very difficult time.
That’s all I will say at this point as we haven’t heard any other news.
Hoping for a positive outcome for her and her family, but the news yesterday was tough to hear.

The OPP are working the Winchester area while Ottawa Police are lead on the scene.
