Officers were called to the store, near Henri-Bourassa and Lacordaire boulevards, around 4:30 p.m. Tuesday. One person was found outside with severe injuries to his upper body, police said. He was taken to hospital, where he later died.
The stabbing occurred following an altercation inside the Walmart, Brabant said. It’s not clear why the altercation broke out.
