Provincial Police Probe Officer-Related Incident Involving Montreal Cop

The Canadian Press, 25 Apr, 2016 11:14 AM
    MONTREAL — A man is in critical condition in hospital after allegedly being injured by Montreal police this morning.
     
    Provincial police say Montreal officers responding to a psychological distress call at an apartment block at about 8 a.m. were involved.
     
    They are not confirming multiple media reports the man was shot.
     
    The incident occurred about three blocks south of the Olympic Stadium in the city's Hochelaga-Maisonneuve borough.
     
    Provincial police have taken over the case. In Quebec, it is customary for another force to investigate when there is injury or death during a police operation.
