The victim was initially going there as part of an exchange of goods.

The person was hit in the lower body, and taken to a hospital. The SPL confirmed there’s no fear for the life of the victim despite serious.

The police received a first call in connection with the conflict at 6:40 p.m. because of the gunshots heard. Once there, the SPL arrested a 34-year-old suspect, who was still being held on the morning of Dec. 6.

The SPL is still looking for another suspect linked with the events.

Trading Place

A neutral meeting area was inaugurated in November 2021, at the SPL Headquarters, which is located at 2911, Chomedey Boulevard.

Available at all times and filmed 24 hours a day, the meeting area allows citizens to trade goods safely.

At the time of that zone’s inauguration, the SPL was already considering the creation of at least two other exchange areas on the territory, in particular in Chomedey and Pont-Viau.

Most of the reports had similarities. The puppies, mostly French bulldog, had all been posted on classifieds websites.

The suspects showed up in groups at the address where the puppies were, and used force, sometimes even prohibited weapons like cayenne pepper, to flee with the pets.

Arrests

At the end of October 2021, an 18-year-old Laval resident was arrested, while in action, in Thurso, in the regional county municipality of Papineau.

After the arrest, SQ investigators from across the province worked together to link files, and submit them to the Director of Criminal and Penal Prosecutions, who issued arrest warrants, executed on Wednesday, Nov. 16.

Investigators from the Vaudreuil-Dorion Major Crimes Investigation Team arrested Mohammed Bjitar and Algo Brian Fotso Youmby, both 19-year-old Laval residents, as well as Denzel Lina, a Blainvillois, also 19 years old.

The suspects had a video appearance, in connection with residential break-ins, robbery, possession of a prohibited weapon, and carrying a weapon for a dangerous purpose.

Two of the three arrested suspects were already detained on Montreal soil, in a provincial establishment.

The third suspect also remains detained, following his first appearance in the case.

“Although this made it possible to resolve a few cases, including that which occurred on Oct. 25, 2021, in Sainte-Anne-de-Sabrevois, the investigation is continuing,” said the SQ by press release. “More arrests could follow.” (B.L.)
