A longtime Toronto police officer is being remembered as a “great guy” and mentor after his death in an apparent suicide at downtown police headquarters. Mike Austin died Thursday night shortly after his shift at Toronto Police Operations Centre. According to a source with knowledge of the death, Austin died inside the parking garage at police headquarters. “It’s so sad, for him and his family.”Before working out of police headquarters, Austin walked the beat with downtown’s 51 division. Last September, an Ottawa officer died by suicide inside police headquarters.
