The latest news is that one female student has died of her wounds.
My daughter was in her calculus class when the shooting started. Her classroom was on the fourth floor on the south side of the collage, with the windows over looking Rue de Maisonneuve. The shootings started outside on the street just below her class. When they heard the first shoots, one student looked outside and yelled “Someone was shot”. All of the students rushed to the windows and saw one male down on the ground with a blood around his head and neck. There also was a girl bent over holding her stomach. At this point the teacher locked the doors and turned off the lights and got all of the students down and under their desks. About a half hour later the police led them out through a side door. When my daughter finally got hold on me on the phone she was already away from the school and safe. It was only a matter of finding some point where I could pick her up and take her home. Needless to say we were both very upset.
On the local CTV coverage they showed the calculus class, including my daughter, as they were running away from the school and passing under the police tape.
Thank you for your wishes.
