MONTREAL – Three people are in hospital after a case of domestic violence in the borough of Lasalle Sunday morning.

The stand-off ended when police shot the man with rubber bullets. He was struck in the lower body and was taken to hospital where he’s listed in critical condition.
“At this point, we fear for his life,” said Abdullah Emran spokesperson for the SPVM.
Inside the residence, officers discovered two victims. A woman in her 50s and a man in his 20s.
