Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 21 Oct, 2014 12:04 PM

    SAINT-JEAN-SUR-RICHELIEU, Que. - One of two soldiers hit by a car on Monday in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Que., died of his injuries early Tuesday, according to Quebec provincial police.

    The soldier's name has not been released at the request of the family.

    The second soldier's injuries were described as less serious, but police were not able to provide an update on the individual's condition.

    Police said the motorist died from gunshot wounds after striking the soldiers with his car in an incident one MP cited in the Commons as a "possible terror attack."

    Several media outlets cited law enforcement sources as naming the suspect as Martin Rouleau, though police have not yet confirmed the suspect's identity.
