A conflict that degenerated was the cause of an armed attack that occurred in the Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie sector on Tuesday morning.
The armed attack was reported to authorities around 5 a.m. The attack, which seriously injured a 25-year-old man, occurred at the intersection of rue Beaubien and 29e avenue.
“The man located by the police was injured in the upper body, possibly by a sharp object,” said agent Caroline Chèvrefils, media relations for the Montreal City Police Service (SPVM).
A conflict escalated between the victim and the suspect who fled, according to the police force.
Checks will be carried out on surveillance cameras in the area. There are no arrests at this time.
