Around 7:55 p.m., officers from the Service de police de la Ville de Montréal (SPVM) were called to intervene for shots fired at the corner of Saint-Antoine Ouest and de la Montagne streets, opposite the Bell Center .
After research, they ended up locating the victims’ car in front of the George-Vanier metro station, at the corner of Saint-Antoine and George-Vanier streets.
Of the two victims, both in their twenties, one was dead and the other seriously injured.
According to the first information available, at least one person in a moving vehicle opened fire on theirs. The two men would then have fled at the wheel before stopping a little further.
A little later, the police spotted a third victim, also in critical condition. It is unclear at this time if she fell victim to the same attackers.
A police perimeter has been set up on rue Saint-Antoine Ouest between rue Peel and rue George-Vanier.
More details to come.
