Man shot dead in Laval
It won’t go on my incidents tote board, which is just for the island of Montreal, but a young man was shot dead in Laval overnight and yes, he was known to police.
Do cops sometimes feel like standing back and letting the gangsters deal with the gang problem themselves?

Wasn’t that their strategy during the biker wars? Until an 11-year old was killed.

More or less. There was a 15-year-old girl shot dead here this year, but it didn’t cause the wave of outrage that the death of Daniel Desrochers did.
