A tragic incident unfolded in a park in Montreal’s Saint-Laurent borough on Saturday night, resulting in the death of a 22-year-old man due to a stabbing. This marks the 26th homicide on the SPVM’s territory this year.
During the same armed attack, two 19-year-old men were also injured, with one in critical condition and the other in stable condition as of Sunday morning. All three victims sustained upper body injuries from a sharp object.
The SPVM received reports around 9:15 p.m. on Saturday regarding the incident in a park near the intersection of Jules-Poitras Street and Deguire Blvd. Upon their arrival, the police found the three victims and promptly transported them to a hospital.
While potential witnesses have been interviewed by the police, no arrests have been made in connection with the case so far. To facilitate investigations, a perimeter has been established to protect the scene for forensic experts and investigators to unravel the details of the incident.
The SPVM’s major crimes section is leading the investigation to shed light on the circumstances surrounding this tragic event.
