Quebec Watchdog Seeking Videos, Witnesses of Shooting that Killed Officer, Bystander
The watchdog wants witnesses and video as investigators probe the June 22 police intervention that left two people dead and a second officer wounded.
- On Monday, the Bureau des enquêtes indépendantes established a command post at the intersection of De Courtrai Avenue and Décarie Boulevard in Montreal to interview witnesses regarding the June 22 police shooting.
- During the June 22 incident, a gunman identified as 25-year-old Seth Scott Hatfield opened fire near a Hilton hotel, resulting in the deaths of Montreal police officer Mohamed Lamine Benredouane and bystander Michel Mizrahi.
- Authorities are investigating a manifesto allegedly authored by Hatfield, which expressed misogynistic ideologies tied to the incel movement and threatened the pornography industry; Aylo acknowledged "reports discussing a possible connection to Aylor and Pornhub."
- A public memorial for Benredouane is scheduled for July 7 at the Bell Centre, while the Sûreté du Québec leads the criminal investigation and the RCMP probes potential extremism.
- The BEI explicitly requested that anyone with video or information concerning the intervention contact investigators through their website as part of the mandatory independent review of this police operation.
