A warrant has been issued for 32-year-old Yacine Zouaoui, who was unaccounted for at the minimum security Federal Training Centre in Laval, north of Montreal, Thursday night.
Quebec provincial police say they have reason to believe he may be in Ontario.

Zouaoui is described as 185 cm (6 ft 1) in height and 84 kg (186 lbs) in weight.
He has brown eyes, brown hair and visible tattoos including a teardrop under his left eye and three dots in the web of his left hand.
He speaks English.
"The inmate is currently serving an indeterminate sentence for assault causing bodily injury and second-degree murder," Correctional Service of Canada said Friday.
