A Jewish school is targeted by gunfire
News from Montreal where a Jewish school is targeted by gunfire
Montreal police say a Jewish school in the borough of Côte-des-Neiges–Notre-Dame-de-Grâce has been hit by at least one bullet.
Const. Véronique Dubuc, a spokesperson for Montreal police, said investigators were called Wednesday in the late afternoon about a possible shooting outside a school on Hillsdale Road near Van Horne Avenue.
Police were on the scene by 6 p.m., established a perimeter, and determined that at least one bullet struck the school, she said. Police are still in the early stages of the investigation.
Politicians and Jewish advocacy groups were quick to respond to the incident.
Yair Szlak, president and CEO of Federation CJA, and Eta Yudin, vice-president of the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs Quebec, issued a joint statement Wednesday, saying the shooting took place sometime in the night between Tuesday and Wednesday.
"We have had enough. Another Jewish school shooting in Canada," the statement says.
"Once again, and thankfully, no one was inside the building. We know that when decisive action is taken by leadership at the municipal level, this can end."
The statement calls for an end to intimidation and fear-mongering in Montreal and calls on all citizens to use their voices to end the hatred.
The Montreal police service has assured, as a precaution, there will be increased presence in front of all Jewish schools in the city, the statement says.
Outremont MP Rachel Bendayan said on X, formerly Twitter, that she spoke with school administrators and community leaders about the incident.
"This must stop. This is not who we are," she wrote.
Last week, Montreal police announced they arrested a suspect in connection with shots fired at a Jewish school back in November. Two Jewish schools were shot at in November
