Young man shot in St-Michel
A young man was shot, not fatally, Monday afternoon on Fleury, in what Global calls Montreal North and CTV calls St-Michel. (I think it’s just inside Montreal North.)
Update: Tuesday morning, TVA specifies the man was shot in the penis.

It could also be Ahuntsic, depending on what side of the street he was on. Fleury west of St-Michel is Ahuntsic, east of St-Michel is Montreal-North. As far as I know, St-Michel as a borough has its border further south, and ends at the train tracks south of Industriel boulevard. So CTV it’s wrong here.
From the story, it sounds like the shooting took place on the Montreal-North side, though. Fleury Street was closed between Lausanne (east of St-Michel) and St-Michel Boulevard and the parking lot of the Euromarché (also east of St-Michel) was also closed.
This story reminds me that I haven’t been to Chez Ma Tante (on the Ahuntsic side of Fleury) in quite a while. I miss those ridiculously greasy (in a good way!) fries. I just learned that a Chez Ma Tante also opened up in NYC: http://www.chezmatantenyc.com.

CTV is wrong here. Damn you autocorrect!

dhomas, on the blog page there’s a link down right for a town and borough Google map made by someone at CTV. Going by that, the corner of St-Michel and Fleury, as mentioned, is inside Montreal North by a block or two.

Thanks for the link, Kate! Very useful. I used to live in that area and was always under the impression that Ahuntsic went all the way to St-Michel, at least on Fleury Street. Thank you for educating me!

They shot him in the dick? That’s sending a message.
