Laval police have arrested a 17-year-old male teen after a shot was fired outside a school there yesterday afternoon.
It happened as people were leaving class at the Pavillon Latour of Curé-Antoine-Labelle high school.
Police say a vehicle with several young people inside pulled up to the school.
According to Stéphanie Beshara, a spokesperson for Laval police, a fight broke out between those who arrived in the vehicle and a couple of students exiting the school, leaving a 17-year-old injured.
A friend tried to defend the teen, and a suspect fired a gun into the air. No one was hit.
Police say there were several witnesses who gave a description of the suspect vehicle and license plate number.
They later tracked down the vehicle in Laval's Sainte-Dorothée neighbourhood, and the suspect was questioned overnight.
Police say there could still be more arrests.
