UPDATE:
The search is over for an Ontario man accused of fatally injuring his seven-year-old stepson moments before attempting to kill a bank employee.
Niagara police Chief Jeff McGuire confirmed late Tuesday that 43-year-old Justin Kuijer was arrested by provincial police in Kenora, Ont., after a tip from a citizen.
A Canada-wide arrest warrant was issued Monday for Kuijer on charges of second-degree murder in the death of seven-year-old Nathan Dumas, as well as the attempted murder of a woman working at an RBC branch.
Police alleged that Kuijer had been on the run in his ex-girlfriend’s van ever since the two grisly scenes unfolded Friday.
