Three people, including a Montreal police officer, a civilian and a suspect, were killed following a mass shooting in the city’s Côte-des-Neiges neighborhood Monday morning, local authorities confirmed.
A second female police officer was injured and remains in stable condition. The incident, which marks Montreal’s first on-duty police killing since 2002, prompted provincial authorities to issue an active “armed threat alert” that forced local residents to shelter in place and completely closed Highway 40, The Montreal Gazette reported.
