Yukon's coroner has named the man shot and killed by RCMP on Tuesday, south of Whitehorse.

In a news release on Wednesday, the Yukon Coroner Service identified the deceased man as Christopher John Delaney, 55, of Whitehorse.

The shooting happened on Tuesday at approximately 1 p.m. near the McClintock River Bridge in Marsh Lake, about 50 kilometres southeast of Whitehorse, police said in an earlier news release.

RCMP said a warrant had been issued for the man's arrest in relation to a firearms incident over the weekend. They had earlier asked for the public's help to find Delaney, saying he was facing several weapons-related charges.

During the interaction with Delaney on Tuesday, "a police-involved shooting occurred, resulting in the death of the individual," the statement read.
