Residents of a residential neighborhood in the municipality of Dollard-des-Ormeaux, on the western part of the Island of Montreal, were awakened by gunshots.
There were several reports to 911 late Friday night, around 11 p.m., regarding multiple gunshots heard on Lido Street, near Pheasant Street.
“When police arrived at the scene, they found no victims or suspects. Shell casings were found on the ground, and bullet holes were found on a residence and a vehicle in the driveway,” said Officer Caroline Chèvrefils, spokesperson for the Montreal Police Service (SPVM).
The circumstances surrounding this incident remain unclear.
“A perimeter was established to secure the scene for investigators and forensic technicians so they could analyze it and try to understand the exact circumstances of this event,” Chèvrefils noted.
Witnesses were interviewed overnight, and police were set to check on Saturday whether nearby surveillance cameras might have captured footage of the incident.
No one had been arrested at the time of this writing.
The SPVM’s investigation is ongoing.
