Hamilton police have updated their investigation in the shooting death of 34-year-old Michael Campbell last month.

The native of Brampton was killed at about 1:30 a.m. on Monday, Aug 8 on East Avenue near King Street in Hamilton. Three other people were also injured at the time.

Investigators say witnesses have come forward to help by identifying people who were at Sheila’s Bar on King Street in the hours leading up to the shooting. They say it’s possible the shooting was a result of an earlier dispute that occurred inside the bar and Campbell may not have been the intended target.
