Montreal police finally concluded an almost 20-hour sieged confrontation with a 70-year-old armed man at his home in a residential neighborhood on Wednesday morning. The man defined by neighbours as a retired professor with an unpredictable and aggressive personality was put down by a couple of rubber bullets because he threatened police with several guns that he owned legally.
Police claims that having failed at multiple occasions to convince the man to surrender or tricking him to evacuate the house with irritant gases, a police SWAT identified a “window of opportunity” in the morning and fired two rubber bullets at the man. A robot vehicle was put into practice by the police, which gathered insight into the whereabouts of the suspect in the house and confirmed that he did not have any firearm on him, after which tactical officers moved in and arrested the suspect. A spokesperson of Police, Constable Daniel Lacoursière, stated that “the suspect had several firearms registered to his name at that address.” It was revealed that the suspected was quickly shifted to a nearby hospital for medical assessment.
Meanwhile, neighbors reported that the man usually seemed to act in a manner indicating that he had dementia. One of the suspects’ neighbors, Yael Dayan, revealed that even though he usually expressed aggressive behavior, she never felt threatened by him. She alleged that “he never tried to hurt anyone,” and “his wife is very, very sweet and she’s very conscious that he’s ill.” The operation began at around 11 a.m. on Tuesday when police were called to a detached house on Guelph Road, near the corner of Emerald Avenue, in the east-end district of Côte Saint-Luc.
