Columbine type shooting in Montreal
- Thread starter taodr
- Start date
It's a shooting spree at Dawson College in downtown Montreal.
The college is still shut down and I don't think the police have captured him or the shooter is cornered somewhere still on campus or a nearby store.
Lots of students taking shelter at the nearby Concordia University.

They said he commited suicide. This should be in chit chat. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060913/ap_on_re_ca/canada_college_shooting
Their now saying the gunmen has been neutralized and that the college is still closed because students said there's more than one suspect.
Apparently so far, there are no hostages.
13 wounded with 8 of them critical condition and one confirmed dead.
A student said he walked down the street to the college around 12:35pm est with this big gun...wearing a long black trench coat, big dark boots and a weird haircut...
People (including students) walked right by him without saying anything as if it was normal to be seeing someone walk down the street with an automatic weapon in his hand.
10mins later he open fired outside and then went inside and continuing firing.
Police had arrived just as the shooting started.
Obviously someone called earlier because it wasn't normal to him/her to see an armed black trench 19yr-20yr old with an automatic weapon.
Edit: 4 are now confirmed dead.

Might be yet another one of those crazy seperatist "pea-soupers" going ape about not being allowed to secede from Canada. Its a very emotional issue, I'm told.

This 'sort of thing' has occurred in Canada MANY times.
The place is full of half drug addled psychopaths with a contingent that wants to secede from the rest
From my experience (I have cousins there) I wouldn't want to live there!
