Four men were probably traveling at high speed around 1:40 p.m. in an Infiniti car, when the driver suddenly lost control of the vehicle on Chemin de la Côte-Saint-Luc, near the intersection of Grand Boulevard.
The car first hit a tree, then a bus shelter, before ending on a grassy field at the edge of the road.
Luckily, no one was in the bus shelter at the time.

The firefighters had to use the jaws of life to extricate the occupants from the wreckage of the car.
Three days after the events, Montreal police confirmed that the 21-year-old driver succumbed to his injuries in hospital.
Among the three other passengers, all aged 20, two are still between life and death.
“The investigation is still ongoing in this case,” said officer Sabrina Gauthier, spokesperson for the Montreal police.
