New video footage from the scene of the shooting attack in Montreal's Jewish district shows the ongoing police operation near a Jewish business center. The footage emerges after The Zioneer reported earlier Monday evening that a heavily armed suspect opened fire near a Jewish family's home in the Côte-des-Neiges district, wounding two police officers. By 20:21 Jerusalem, we reported the suspect had been neutralized following a major manhunt, and by 21:05, Canadian police confirmed one officer was killed in the incident.

The thread unfolded rapidly Monday. Initial reports at 20:09 described a police officer wounded and one assailant neutralized. By 20:21, Israeli and Jewish media reported one attacker neutralized and a manhunt for additional suspects. At 20:38, the Chabad emissary in Montreal, Rabbi Chaim Cohen, told The Zioneer that gunfire was directed at a building adjacent to the Chabad house; one suspect was arrested, a second remained at large. Police evacuated about 100 people from a nearby hotel into the Chabad center. At 20:48, ZAKA reported multiple security personnel killed and wounded but no Jewish casualties. Canadian police confirmed one officer killed at 21:05.
