Montreal police say 11 people are facing charges in connection with alleged events preceding the death of a 15-year-old boy who was fatally shot by Longueuil police last September.
Police Chief. Insp. David Shane says four young men and seven teenagers will appear in youth court in the coming months.
The Montreal police investigation stemmed from the death of Nooran Rezayi, who was killed in Longueuil, Que., on Sept. 21 after police responded to a 911 call about a group of reportedly armed youths.
Shane says the youth facing charges were between 13 and 17 years old at the time of the events.
He says the charges include conspiracy to kidnap, conspiracy to commit unlawful confinement, conspiracy to commit assault, wearing a disguise for a criminal purpose, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose and unlawful assembly.
Shane says the Montreal police investigation focused on the events leading up to Rezayi’s shooting, while the province’s police watchdog will focus on the intervention involving officers.
