A naked man running along Route 132 late Thursday night in Brossard was hit by a car and pronounced dead shortly after.
Since Longueuil police were involved in the incident, Quebec’s police watchdog has been asked to shed light on the circumstances surrounding the event.
According to preliminary information from the Bureau des enquetes independantes , just before 11:45 p.m., Longueuil police were made aware of the presence of a visibly drunk, naked man on Marie-Victorin Blvd. When officers arrived on scene to arrest the individual, he bolted towards Route 132 and was hit by a car. He was later pronounced dead in hospital.This report by The Canadian Press was first published July 17, 2020.
