The gunman who killed a soldier at an Ottawa war memorial and rampaged through Canada's parliament before being shot dead has been widely identified as 32-year-old Michael Zehaf-Bibeau.

Canadian sources told local media that the government considered him a "high-risk traveller", confiscating his passport to stop him from going abroad.

Court documents show Michael Zehaf-Bibeau was convicted of several petty crimes during the early 2000s, spending several days in jail.
