The terror suspects were identified as Mohamed Khadir and Alexandre Bissonnette, the Canadian TV network TVA Nouvelles reported. They were arrested soon after the shooting at the Quebec Islamic Cultural Centre Sunday night and were expected to appear in court later Monday, police told reporters.
One of the gunman actually turned himself in, calling 911 less than 20 minutes later and giving officers his location so they could arrest him, police said.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau condemned the attack, calling it a terrorist attack on Muslims.
The attackers were students at Université Laval, a school in Quebec, a source close to the investigation told Radio Canada, saying one was Moroccan. Police said the attackers were not on their radar. 0130 quebec shooting Expand / Contract
Five people were in critical condition and 12 others suffered minor injuries, University of Quebec Hospital Centre spokeswoman Genevieve Dupuis said Monday. The dead ranged in age from age 35 to 60.
Police did not reveal a possible motive. One suspect was arrested at the scene and another nearby in d'Orleans, and police said they did not believe there were other suspects.
One of the suspects was armed with an AK-47, the Le Soleil newspaper reported. One gunman reportedly was 27 years old.
A witness who asked to remain anonymous told Radio Canada the two gunmen were masked.
It seemed to me that they had a Quebecois accent. They started to fire, and as they shot they yelled, 'Allahu akbar!' The bullets hit people that were praying. People who were praying lost their lives. A bullet passed right over my head, the person said.

Cut and Paste Gerbilism is so much more efficient than typerwriters and linotypes and killing trees in Quebec.
The names from an unconfirmed police tweet are
Bashir al-Taweed and Hassan Matti>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

First reports from the field are usually wrong.
There’s no doubt though attackers were Islamic terrorists.
Only thing I wished was “extreme vetting” really was a Muslim ban and was permanent.
Stupid Muslims. He thought it was a cathedral.
What’s really telling is that Quebec has the most stringent gun control of all the provinces. It also tends to have the highest number of spree killers.
When former Prime Minister Harper took the huge step for freedom by repealing the federal long gun registry and destroying the database of gun owners, only the idiot legislators in progressive Quebec refused to implement and spent millions creating their own registry. Seeing as it was an AK-47 which can’t be imported into Canada legally, the whole progressive “it’s for the children” effort was obviously a waste.
Alexandre Bissonette is very likely a Muslim convert.
I know Laval - its an island district just off Montreal.
This story will die a quick, quiet death, never to be recalled.
How can you mistake a mosque for a church?
Then again Islamic terrorists have been attacking mosques in Syria so its not new.
Thank You!
Add Canukistan to the list of countries who should have a travel ban imposed.....
Hate to say it but it’s getting to a point where we can no longer have an open border with them as well.
Yet PM Trudeau has doubled down on stupid here by linking this MUSLIM terrorism to Trump’s ban on immigrants from those 7 dangerous nations.
He’s on record of saying that Canada will still welcome all refugees.
Well then. Problem solved.
Send all the refugees to Canada. But don’t forget to be shocked. Shocked I tell you. When more muzzie violence occurs again.
Here’s an article from Canada. They name the two suspects, but only posted a photo of one....the Canadian, not the Muslim.

Correction, when I said laval, I meant the Univercity of Laval in Quebec city, whcih is across the street from where the shootings happened. There are about 1000 Muslim studets there.
Sorry about my mistake.
AK-47, I thought gun control was perfect in Canada?
Perhaps it was the lesser known "Operation Maple Viscous," which piggybacked Fast and Furious. It was designed to ferret out those roughians to the north trafficing in the illegal poultine trade or something like that. No?
De Blasio made a similar statement, so it isn’t just a Canuck thing.
As usual, Trump is always right.
There was a blog post I saw somewhere that led me to think this was more a “true Islam” attack on moderates.
Intramural in any case.
MANY FREEPERS are still buying the lie that you can VET these people.
100% of Muslims are taught in the Koran that Mohamed will not return until the whole world is ISLAM.
To accomplish 100% grade A Islam, the infidels must be harassed, killed, raped, and beheaded to meet that goal. What part of this list don't these dumba$$es called Americans understand?
Interesting point. Morocco is predominately Sunni (official religion) but there are caches of Shia that are mostly students, which the shooter might very well have originated. Would be telling to find out which sect the mosque catered to.
Aaannnddd...It’s Muslims! (Again)
