Michael Moshe Mizrahi has been identified as the Jewish civilian injured in Monday’s shooting in Montreal’s Côte-des-Neiges neighbourhood. ZAKA reported that Mizrahi is undergoing an emergency surgery at the time of reporting.
Early reporting from Chabad.org named Mizrahi as the civilian victim and described him as a member of the local Chabad community.
Around 11:30 am, the shooting started at the intersection of Trans Island Avenue and de Courtrai Avenue, right outside a row of kosher shops, the Chabad-Lubavitch MADA Community Center, and several other synagogues and Jewish day schools, including the premier educational establishments of Chabad in Quebec.
Witnesses reported hearing gunfire during the gunman’s intense gunfight with cops while wearing military camouflage.
