Police say one man is dead after a shooting at a short-term rental in rural Hamilton, Ont. early Sunday morning.
Investigators say the male victim, believed to be in his 40s, succumbed to his injuries in a car on a luxury property near Highway 6 in Flamborough between Concession Road 6 East and Concession Road 7 East.
