We stand together in grief, support, and solidarity with our friends at Lambton College and with our community as a whole. Our deepest condolences go out to all those affected by this tragedy and senseless act of violence.
Lambton College is deeply saddened to share that an individual has died following a shooting early this morning during a Student Administrative Council event at a pub on the Sarnia Main Campus. Two other individuals sustained non-life-threatening injuries.
This loss is a profound tragedy. We extend our deepest condolences to the individual’s family, loved ones and friends and to everyone affected by this staggering loss. Our thoughts are with everyone impacted by this senseless act of violence.
The Sarnia campus remains closed today, Friday, April 10. This closure is inclusive of all classes and services at the Main Campus, Fire School, Skilled Trades Training Centre, EarlyON Child & Family Centre, Community Employment Services, and Capstone's Bistro. The Ottawa Campus is not impacted. We ask our community to please avoid campus.
Support is being provided to members of the Lambton College community through Counselling & Wellness and the Employee and Family Assistance Plan.
We continue to work closely with Sarnia Police Service as they investigate. We thank Sarnia Police Service and emergency services for their response. We also thank our Sarnia-Lambton community for their support at this difficult time. We ask that the privacy of our community members and their loved ones be respected.
