“The man who is at the origin of this event has been identified and met by the investigators” of the Service de police de la Ville de Montréal (SPVM), indicates the police force in a press release.

According to information published by the Montreal Journal and a video of the incident, the man lashed out at Nadisha Hosein and her family, including yelling at them to go “home, India!” India or Pakistan! Go home honey! »

The suspect “is also involved in another separate event, this time for assault on a citizen,” it says.

This citizen would be CTV journalist Stéphane Giroux. “The SPVM arrested the racist guy who tried to hit me in LaSalle last month,” he wrote on Facebook.
