Police say Chaddock was a long-time resident of the building he was found in.
Marcotte is not a resident of the building but was “associated through other tenants,” according to police, who added that the two “did not have any form of relationship to one another.”
Hamilton Police thanked the public for their assistance in relation to the investigation.
This is the city’s eighth homicide of 2021.
