25 actors in the conflict raging in Quebec informed that their lives are in danger
Hells Angels notably received a “Duty to warn” from the police.

Origin of the conflict

The South Shore of Quebec, where several members of the Hells and their Red Devils school club reside, is also affected by the violence.

“We have had around twenty criminal events that have occurred since the beginning of September” due to this conflict, said François Dubé, Lévis police director.

This whole affair stems from a dispute between independent trafficker Dave “Pic” Turmel and Hells Angels Mathieu Pelletier. According to our information, Turmel would have found a GPS beacon under his vehicle at the beginning of 2023, which would have made him fear for his safety. Indeed, this device is used in particular by organized crime killers to track down their targets.

Turmel's suspicions turned towards Pelletier, who then supplied him with narcotics.

On March 7, 2023, Pelletier's house was the subject of gunfire. Residences, vehicles or businesses belonging to bikers were also set on fire, including the garage of Martin Gamache, currently considered the most influential Hells Angels in Quebec.

The affront went beyond the limits last December when the hangout of the motorcycle club in Frampton, in Beauce, as well as the new premises of the Trois-Rivières chapter of the Hells in Hérouxville were also targeted by gunfire, two days before interval.

“The Hells of Trois-Rivières, who are not involved in this conflict, did not find it funny,” a source well connected to this community told us, adding that the Hells of the four other chapters of the gang in the province have clearly told their “brothers” in Quebec to “settle the problem”.

A close relative of the Hells killed

The violence peaked on November 27 when drug trafficker Michel “Doune” Guérin, a former Hells prospect from the Quebec chapter who was still very influential in the criminal world, was shot and killed near his home in the Charlesbourg sector.
