Yup, it was quite the chaos in Downtown Montreal yesterday. Such a sad, sad day. We were on our way home when we were surrounded by police cars and ambulances racing by us and 2 helicopters were hoovering above. We all had to be re-routed in our cars to try and find another route to get home. What normally takes us 15 minutes to get home from the Downtown area, took us about 45 minutes. They had such a large perimeter blocked off.
I found out later on that a friend of my sons girlfriend was one of the victims that had been shot in the leg. Thank goodness she is doing okay.
The girl that had died, was shot in the head. I really felt sorry for the family as they were trying to get in contact with their daughter and couldn't find out where she was as the police were not giving out the girls name. Also, they didn't remove her body from the College until this morning.
Today, while driving by the College, we saw kids placing flowers by the fence and two girls were placing a sign that read; "To all the victims and their families, you are in our hearts.
