Gatineau police surrounded a Mont-Bleu apartment complex Saturday after a bullet had broken through a balcony window on a nearby street the night before, injuring a young woman.
Tactical officers entered the back of the eight-storey building at 8 Radisson St. around noon. There were already several police cars on the grounds of Les Jardins Radisson before a mobile command unit arrived.
On Friday just after 8 p.m., someone shot a bullet through a balcony window on Tassé Street. The bullet went into the apartment but didn’t strike anyone. A woman received facial injuries from the broken glass but didn’t require hospital treatment.
The woman declined to comment further to this newspaper on Saturday about the shooting.
Many residents who live in the Radisson Street apartment complex didn’t know why police cars were all over the property. Residents said police dogs were combing the grounds earlier in the day.
By mid-afternoon, police had restricted vehicular access to the interior roadways of the apartment complex, letting people drive out but not re-enter. A line of cars formed at the front gate of the apartment complex, drivers who simply wanted to go back to their units.
Gatineau police were investigating an apartment complex on Radisson Street in the Mont Bleu district on Saturday after a bullet went through the balcony window of a unit on nearby Tassé Street.
An STO bus arrived to keep people warm.
An Ottawa Police Service cruiser was also on the scene.
Pierre Jacques said he was in his apartment lobby at 8 Radisson St. when a woman asked him where she could find a payphone.
Jacques didn’t know where a payphone was, so he offered his cellphone.
“She looked anxious and really nervous, and she was pacing,” he said.
When Jacques left the building, police signalled him over and asked why he was talking with the woman.
“That’s when they told me she was a suspect in a shooting of some sort that happened (Friday) night,” Jacques said.
He spent about two hours with police Saturday morning providing a description of the woman: about 5-10, wearing “scrappy” jeans and appearing anxious. Jacques had never seen her in the building before.
Tactical officers pulled up to a back entrance of 8 Radisson in a brown van with dark tinted windows. Patrol officers, who were stationed near the door, helped residents leave the building and find their way off the property through a zig-zag of cruisers and past a mobile command post.
Residents leave a building in Gatineau’s Mont Bleu district as police hunt for possible suspects in connection with a Friday night incident in which a woman was injured by flying glass when a bullet went into a nearby apartment.
Police had no information about suspects or the status of the tactical operation. No officers were at the scene who were authorized to provide details.
On Saturday afternoon, no police were outside the apartment that had been hit by a bullet on Friday night. All of the police activity was concentrated on the Radisson apartment complex.
People who live in the Mont-Bleu neighbourhood described a heavy police presence after the shooting.
Caroline Levasseur said she saw police running and yelling Friday night.
News of a shooting near her home didn’t shake Levasseur.
“It’s not the first time,” she said.
The neighbourhood also saw heightened police activity last month when a fire forced the evacuation of a small apartment building on Tassé Street. Police charged a man with arson.
