Watchdog investigates after RCMP fatally shoots man on First Nation in New Brunswick

January 19, 2026

A police oversight agency is investigating after a man was shot and killed by the RCMP on a First Nation in northwestern New Brunswick.

The Serious Incident Response Team, or SiRT, says it was contacted Sunday after the police-involved shooting on Neqotkuk, also known as Tobique First Nation, near the province’s border with Maine.

Mounties issued an advisory on social media earlier Sunday regarding a police operation on the First Nation and asked people to avoid the area, but have not provided an update.
