Quebec’s police watchdog has set up a command post in Montreal’s Côte-des-Neiges neighbourhood to find witnesses to a shooting that killed an officer and bystander.
Members of the independent watchdog, known as the Bureau des enquêtes indépendantes, will be at the command post until 2 p.m. ET to speak with people who saw gunfire erupt June 22 and may have captured video of the incident.
On that day, a gunman opened fire outside a Hilton hotel before exchanging shots with responding police officers.
The shooting killed Montreal police Const. Mohamed Lamine Benredouane, 34, civilian bystander Michel Mizrahi, 68, and the 25-year-old alleged gunman from Lethbridge, Alta. Another officer was injured in the shooting.
The alleged gunman left behind a manifesto expressing his hatred of women and calling for violence.
The watchdog is conducting an independent investigation into the case, a standard procedure whenever a person dies or suffers a serious injury during a police operation.
