Montreal | Knife-wielding suspect wanted

The Service de police de la Ville de Montréal (SPVM) is asking for the public’s help in apprehending Dushaun Thompson, a 29-year-old man suspected of stabbing, aggravated assault and robbery in Montreal. He has been at large since February 18.


Earlier this week, the 29-year-old carried out two separate attacks. Last Monday, at the corner of Sainte-Catherine Est and Atateken streets, in the borough of Ville-Marie, Mr. Thompson asked another person to give him his cell phone and headphones. Faced with this person’s refusal, he allegedly stabbed him three times. He reportedly fled south before turning onto René-Lévesque Street East.

The next day, he allegedly committed three separate robberies in the Hochelaga-Maisonneuve district, in the early evening, around 7:40 p.m. and 8 p.m. He was then always armed with a knife.

Dushaun Thompson is the subject of a federal arrest warrant because he has been illegally at large since February 18, the SPVM said in a press release on Friday.

He is a black man who speaks English. He is 1.83 meters tall and weighs 100 kilos. He has black hair, brown eyes, and teardrop tattoos under his eyes.

Dushaun Thompson is considered violent and aggressive. The SPVM therefore urges the public to be cautious.

To transfer any information to the investigators, the population can contact 911, their neighborhood station, or make an anonymous report to Info-crime Montréal (514-393-1133) or online.

“Rewards of up to $3,000 can be awarded by Info-Crime Montreal for information leading to the arrest of suspects,” recalls the SPVM. Certain conditions apply. »
