The Northumberland Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is aware of misinformation currently circulating on social media and is providing the following clarification.

On October 21, 2025, at approximately 11:45 pm, Northumberland OPP arrested one individual on County Road 45 in Roseneath in connection with a trespassing complaint. This incident was the subject of a previously issued media release titled “Person Arrested for Trespass and Mischief.”

Northumberland OPP have been made aware of social media reports that officers were involved in a firearms incident and that one person was shot and taken into custody. This information is false. It appears to stem from a misunderstanding or confusion of the two separate incidents described above.
