A timeline of what happened after Longueuil police opened fire on a teenager
Delays in notifying the independent watchdog and alleged police interference have led to calls for a separate probe and a $2.2 million lawsuit from the victim’s family.
- Longueuil police shot and killed Nooran Rezayi, 15-year-old, after arriving at 2:58 p.m., and he was declared dead at 3:29 p.m., prompting a Bureau des enquêtes indépendantes investigation.
- Officers had been called after a 911 call at 2:47 p.m. reported masked, armed individuals, and witnesses said youths had planned to shoot a movie in a nearby wooded area.
- A video released by family lawyers appears to show Rezayi was shot within 10 seconds of police parking; radio logs state no other armed suspects were present, and BEI investigators seized only the officer's firearm, a baseball bat, backpack, and ski masks.
- Longueuil Mayor Catherine Fournier this past week asked Quebec Public Security Minister Ian Lafrenière for an independent probe, and Rezayi’s family filed a $2.2 million civil suit while Montreal police opened a parallel criminal investigation.
- Bishop later replied that Longueuil police chief Patrick Bélanger said the rule to notify the BEI `without delay` does not require immediate contact, which she rejected.
