JUST IN: New details emerge about landlord who allegedly killed engaged couple in Stoney Creek
Property records obtained by CTV News Toronto indicate the owner of the house – located at 322 Jones Rd., near Barton Street, in Stoney Creek – was under the name Terry Brekka.On Saturday, the unnamed couple was shot dead after they attempted to flee the residence from their 57-year-old landlord who had barricaded himself in the house with multiple guns registered in his name.
Longtime neighbours said Brekka lived in the upper floors of the house and the couple – a 27-year-old female educational assistant and a 28-year-old male electrician — lived in the basement. A family member of Brekka’s told CTV News Toronto he was a steelworker who was estranged from some relatives, and that he wasn’t known to have guns.
Tony Greenly, who had lived next door to Brekka for 16 years, said he never saw the man with any weapons but he felt intimidated by him.Sandra Chaisson, who has lived in the area for more than four decades, said the landlord bought the house on Jones Road from her grandparents.“I can't believe he had weapons registered … I don’t know him well. It just seems out of character,” she said.“He was very quiet. A very quiet man.
