Suspect In Montreal Double Homicide Turns Himself In To Police Saturday Night

The Canadian Press, 09 Aug, 2015 12:41 PM

MONTREAL — The main suspect in a homicide that left two people dead after a brawl last weekend has turned himself in to Montreal police overnight.

Police released a video of the suspect entering a bar earlier this week, and had described him as dangerous and possibly armed.

The man will meet with investigators today.

Two men were shot and two others stabbed during the fight just after 3 a.m. last Sunday in the downtown.

Two of the men died that evening, bringing to 16 the number of homicides in Montreal this year.

Three other individuals have been arrested and charged in connection with the incident.
