According to the SIU, on Nov. 9 at around 7:30 p.m., Grey Highlands OPP officers received a report of a domestic situation involving two men at a hunting camp in the Irish Lake area.

The SIU says officers attended the scene and spoke with a 52-year-old man, who was one of the men allegedly involved in the dispute.

Early the next morning, the SIU says officers were called back to the same camp after receiving a report of a deceased man.
