According to our information, the alleged acts occurred late Friday afternoon, in the streets near the ferry Sorel-Tracy.

The victim would be a security guard whose mandate was to prevent a traffic jam and to redirect vehicles arriving on Phipps Street to other streets.

At approximately 4:45 pm, a black SUV with two individuals aboard approached and the driver refused to obey the security guard's instructions. The individual, wearing a Hells Angels jacket, would have rather roared his engine and would have left the vehicle to verbally attack the security guard.

He would then have boarded the SUV and proceeded to the ferry booth to address an employee. However, she refused to serve him.

While driving the other way around, the driver allegedly filmed the security guard or took pictures of him before verbally threatening him and leaving the scene.

After investigation, the driver was identified as Serge Lebrasseur. Police confirmed that events occurred near the ferry late Friday afternoon, but refused to identify the suspect.
