Ottawa police say they have arrested three people after a man was shot and killed on York Street near King Edward Avenue early Tuesday morning.

A 911 call about a man being shot came in at about 1:20 a.m, police said in a news release.

The man later died, and the homicide unit is investigating, police said.

Neither the victim nor the three arrested have been identified.

Police said the arrests happened during a "detailed ground search" but they're not naming anyone because the investigation is ongoing. The victim's name has not been released as officers notify family.

An active police operation took place in the area throughout Tuesday morning, with tactical officers deployed. All road closures have since ended, according to police and the city.
