A man possibly linked to street gangs was stabbed to death following a conflict which broke out at the exit of bars in Laval, on the night of Saturday to Sunday.
An argument between an undetermined number of people arose shortly following 2 a.m. outside a restaurant on rue Claude-Gagné, near Place Bell.
The emergency services then located a man injured in the upper body. He was transported to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
According to our information, the victim would be Vick Sévère Paul, 51 years old.
No arrests have yet been made in the case.
criminal past
The resident of Saint-Jérôme would have been part of the Haitian street gangs, according to what the media had reported a decade ago.
The Laval Police Service does not confirm, however, whether there was a link between the argument and the criminal history of the victim.
Sévère Paul was notably arrested in 2009 for attempted murder in the Niagara Falls region.
Then, in 2012, he was arrested as part of Operation Loquace, which led to the dismantling of a major criminal network of drug traffickers. He was sentenced to two years less a day for drug trafficking.
His brother Lamartine Sévère Paul, a member of the Rouges, was killed in Laval in 2012. His cousin Ducarme Joseph, former leader of the Saint-Michel street gang, was murdered in 2014.
