MONTREAL — A coroner's inquest heard Monday that a man killed two people at random in Montreal in August 2022, then travelled to Ontario to visit the Toronto Zoo and Canada's Wonderland before returning to Quebec to murder again.
Police identified Abdulla Shaikh, 26, from video at the Ontario amusement parks, and receipts from the venues were found in his car, provincial police investigator Alexandra Caron Vadbonecoeur told the inquest.
Kamel said in her opening statement that the hearings will shed light on the deaths and produce recommendations to help prevent similar murders from occurring. Police have said that within about one hour in Montreal on Aug. 2, Shaikh fatally shot Lemieux, 64, who was inside a bus shelter and Belhaj, 48, who was walking to work. About 24 hours later in Laval, Que., just north of Montreal, he killed 22-year-old Lévis-Crevier, who was skateboarding on the street.
In the lead up to the killings, Shaikh had been living alone in a Montreal apartment but did not have any friends, Caron Vadbonecoeur said. He was close to his mother, who had been texting him on the messaging application WhatsApp around the time of the murders.
