ST. CATHARINES -- Niagara police are investigating a deadly home invasion on the weekend that left an intruder dead and a resident of the home charged with manslaughter.
The motive for the attack is still under investigation.
Police said four young men entered a home in St. Catharines around 2 p.m. on Saturday.
The four allegedly held another four people in the small home captive for a short time before 19-year-old Pedro Bello was shot and killed.
Bello's body was discovered in the basement of the home when police arrived after receiving a 911 call.
A 22-year-old man, who suffered minor injuries, has been charged with manslaughter.
Three other men, ranging in age from 19 to 23, were caught in a vehicle after fleeing the scene.
The three suspects, all from St. Catharines, face charges that include forcible confinement, robbery with a firearm, and breaking and entering.
Police said all four men in the case have been remanded into custody.
