Young man dies in stabbing

A young man still in his teens was fatally stabbed late Sunday at de Maisonneuve and St‑Laurent and a security perimeter was put up, including St-Laurent metro station, where trains were not allowed to stop.

At midday Monday, radio news is still saying the metro station is closed and trains are passing through without stopping. Best to check the green line twitter feed for news on this, if it’s important to you.

Another, non-fatal stabbing had taken place a little earlier Sunday evening not too far from there, but nothing in this story indicates they were connected. TVA tells us this happened in a McDonald’s but other media were discreet on the specifics.

And a third stabbing happened in the Plateau early Monday.

The hot weather is making people stabby.
