Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, the slain gunman in Wednesday’s shooting at the Ottawa War Memorial and Parliament Buildings, had a criminal record in Quebec and British Columbia.
Court documents obtained by CBC News show that Zehaf-Bibeau pleaded guilty to charges including drug possession and robbery.
Zehaf-Bibeau, a Canadian born in 1982, was charged with drug possession in 2004.
He pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 60 days in jail.
Court documents show he lived in Montreal at the time, in the north-end neighbourhood of Villeray.
CBC News in Montreal went to the address listed on the court documents. Neighbours said Zehaf-Bibeau had not lived there for years.
Zehaf-Bibeau was in trouble with the law again in 2011, this time in British Columbia.
Following a bank robbery in Vancouver, Zehaf-Bibeau was charged with robbery and uttering threats. He was found guilty of the lesser charge of uttering threats.
Eye In The Sky said:"A photographer happened to be taking some photos of a proud soldier this morning. Little did he know he was taking one of this man's last photos. Let us remember him standing tall and on guard. Rest in peace Nathan Cirillo."
Colin P said:Apparently taken just before the shooting. No doubt not given any ammunition during guard duty. From now on they need to either stop the guard or give them the correct tools to do it. My prayers and thoughts to the soldier, his comrades and his family. I hope he makes it.
