A suspected ISIS sympathizer believed to be the lone suspect in a suicide bomb plot on a major Canadian city was killed Wednesday during a dramatic police takedown in a southern Ontario town, CTV News has learned.

RCMP stop possible terror threat

Aaron Driver, 23, was killed inside a home in Strathroy, Ont., a community about 225 kilometres west of Toronto. He was well known to Canadian intelligence and police officials for his support for the Islamist terrorist group.

Police believe Driver was acting alone in the alleged plot, and there is no threat to public safety. But officials were swarming the Strathroy house until late Wednesday night, concerned about what may have been inside

Driver was well known to police and intelligence officials. He was known for tweeting his support of ISIS, and he applauded the 2014 attack on Parliament Hill and encouraged ISIS to target Canadian military and police.

However, there is no evidence whether he was directed by the group in Wednesday’s foiled plot.

Driver was previously arrested but never formally charged for his actions. He was released on a peace bond and banned from using a computer, a cellphone or associating with terrorist sympathizers.

His father, a career member of Canada's Armed Forces, told CBC News in March that CSIS had told him his son was considered a radical extremist.
