Rabbi Identified as Civilian Killed in Montreal Shooting

A civilian killed during a shooting in Montreal was identified as Rabbi Michael Moshe Mizrahi, a member of a local Chabad center. The incident occurred in Côte-des-Neiges, a borough with a longstanding Jewish community. Initial reports indicate the rabbi may have been struck by crossfire during the exchange between police and the gunman.

The gunman left a 100-page manifesto reportedly containing references to incel ideology. Police responded to the scene and engaged the attacker. The gunman had targeted a police officer, who was also killed. Officials have not confirmed whether the rabbi was shot by the attacker or caught in the crossfire. The death adds to the toll from the confrontation in the neighborhood.
