MONTREAL — Police said things got ugly in a St. Eustache pool hall early Friday morning, when a man was shot and an employee was stabbed.
The incident took place at Le Billard le Patriote just after closing at around 3:45 a.m.
The police did not reveal many details, except to say that the suspects came into the bar, fired a gun and shot a customer in the lower body.
As they fled the scene, an employee, who may have been the bouncer, apparently tried to stop them, and was stabbed.
