Murder of Arsène Mompoint Gang leader caught by surprise, video shows
Arsène Mompoint and members of his entourage were taken completely by surprise by the killer who shot the gang leader on Thursday in Kanesatake, according to a video of the crime circulating since Saturday on social networks.
In the 20-second video obtained by La Presse, we can see what we wrote on Saturday morning: Mompoint was seated with other individuals to the right of the entrance, in the cannabis store The Green Room, on route 344, in Kanesatake. He had his back to the entrance when the suspect immediately walked over to the table, approached him quietly from behind, pulled a handgun from his kangaroo's pocket and opened fire, before to run away.
The suspect was about two meters from Mompoint when he fired. While the shooter was hugging his neck, those accompanying Arsène Mompoint hurriedly left the store, leaving the victim there.
The crime was well planned. The suspect is said to have arrived at the scene in an old model Ford sport utility vehicle, in a pale color, a photo of which the SQ released on Friday.
