A lockdown of the Cree Nation of Mistissini in the James Bay region of Quebec has been lifted as police continue to investigate a fatal double shooting thought to be connected to organized crime.

The First Nation’s chief, Michael Petawabano, said the investigation into the incident is still in progress, but the Eeyou Eenou Police Force and Sûreté du Québec had determined “there is no continued threat to public safety.”
