- Three other people have been arrested in connection with the case.

## Summary

Ontario homeowner Ozric Blanchard has been charged with careless firearm storage and unauthorised possession of a prohibited or restricted firearm after two teenagers died during a break-in at his rural home. The case matters because police say they had to assess the legality and storage of firearms even though the incident began with an invasion of the property.

Eddie Alobhouet, 19, and Tristan Simard, 18, died on 2 February 2025; police believe the targeted robbery was organised to steal $5,000, and a third suspect escaped. The two residents were uninjured and initially taken into custody, then released unconditionally. Three other people have been arrested in connection with the alleged robbery, and Blanchard is due in court on 2 December.
