Three Dead in Montreal Midday Shooting After Gunman Targets Police

A midday shooting in Montreal’s Côte-des-Neiges district has claimed three lives, including a police officer, a civilian, and the lone gunman who was shot by responding forces. Another officer was wounded in the attack, which Police Chief Fady Dagher described as a nightmare and the city’s first line-of-duty police fatality in 24 years. While provincial authorities have not officially established a motive, Canadian media reports reveal the suspect had recently published an online manifesto filled with misogynistic views and explicit calls to attack law enforcement. Prime Minister Mark Carney and Quebec Premier Christine Fréchette both issued statements honoring the victims and praising the heroism of the first responders as a detailed investigation begins.
