Up to three gunman dressed in black army fatigues opened fire in a downtown Montreal college on Wednesday, and early, unconfirmed reports said four people had been killed.
RDI Television quoted unofficial sources as saying that 16 people may also been injured in the shootout. The network said one gunman had turned his weapon on himself and committed suicide, while a second had been shot and killed by police. This could not yet be confirmed.
"A suspect has been neutralized, which means he is not shooting any more," said Ian LaFreniere, a police spokesman.
Montreal police said they believed there were between one and three suspects.
A health agency official told reporters that at least six people have been taken to hospital, of which three are seriously wounded.
The shooting took place in the cafeteria of Dawson College, in the heart of Montreal, Canada's second biggest city. The college has around 10,000 students aged from 16 to 19.
The shooting triggered memories of a 1989 massacre at the Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal, where a gunman killed 14 women before killing himself.
That gunman, Marc Lepine, 25, left behind a three-page letter claiming that feminists had ruined his life and naming 19 high profile Quebec women he wanted to kill.
3 now?
Marc Lepine's birthname (as opposed to the legally changed name his mother gave him after she left his father) was Gamal Gharbhi.
Now watch the MSM run with this story like a madman, while they sweep the Seattle incident under the rug........

Three episodes of shootings? I have not heard about the Seattle incident...anyone have a link?
What kind of name is that? Gharbhi?
Algerian.
It was last month. A muslim terrorist shot up a jewish center. Killing one and injuring others.
That Seattle shooting is a month old, not new
You know, I usually get my news right here. I haven't trusted MSM since #43 WON the second time!

dictators/rulers many years ago named Gamal Abdul
Nasser....?? wonder if his family name is Egyptian.....

What's the third?
A month or two back a muslim attacked the Jewish Center and killed one woman and wounded 3 others, one pregnant. The MSM ignored it and made the man out to be a lone nutcase...........
I wondered the same as you. GMTA. Go figure.
