If anyone here tweets/twitters, can you post links or updates from there? I'm hopeless at it .

I also have to go do RL stuff, and can't keep monitoring for updates for a while.

On LCN news they interviewed an old man that witness the arrest. UF, car was in the ditch and the old man got out of his house to help UF thinking he had a flat tire, police then yelled at the man to get back in the house and he saw UF with a rifle in his hands, he then dropped the rifle and immediately the police used a taser gun.

There are articles in the Gazette & La Presse on this. Neither mention a rifle, nor did the real time scanner reports nor the real time Quinte Scan FB page.

"He seemed to have a knife or branch in his hand".

The old man gave the interview in english on the french channel LCN and used the word "rifle" witch would mean in french fusil, more likely a hunting rifle, or else he would of said a gun (for a small handgun) in my opinion.

OK to me rifle is a gun, a big gun. The purpose would be horrible regardless of the size.

That is because lapresse and gazette are slower news compared to Lcn usually, stick to Lcn they are very quick on finding stuff and who to interview. Here is the link if you can read french http://www.tvanouvelles.ca/2017/09/17/un-temoin-raconte-larrestation-dugo-fredette

Much respect, but the real time info *when the arrest actually happened* contradicts the "rifle" story... Anyhow, I'm getting WAY over the line re TOS with this. Sorry mods .

Thank you very much for that link!!! I'm bilingual. What the gentleman actually says is "He [the cop] had the rifle on him and could have shot him dead. He dropped the rifle and tazered him [the suspect] Bang,

Phew!!! I wasn't getting at you personally! I'm a bit pedantic about accurate reports . And I make mistakes too - and hope that there are others who correct me when that happens!

Do you know this motorcyclist? Stopped at a rest stop in Lachute near the time of Yvon Lacasse's disappearance. @CTVMontreal

The SQ tweet (9:30 this morning) that the above relates to indicates they are "looking for an important witness". The image is so dark, it's hard to see much of anything, but ...

OK UF didn't have a gun, just to make it clear. Thanks for all the links.

Provincial police are also asking citizens between Lachute and Rouyn-Noranda, Que., located about 600 kilometres away, to be on the lookout for Lacasse. They say he could still be missing because he may be injured and moving slowly.

Police say Lacasse's Honda CR-V was taken at 6:12 p.m. on Sept. 14. and around that time surveillance video shows the motorcyclist nearby.

Finally a recent-ish update in English that I can link to .

Note that some (not related to the bits I quoted above) details in the article do not necessarily correspond with other, real time, sources IMO. But they don't affect the search for Monsieur Lacasse.

 

[matou]

So Monsieur Lacasse may be alive? That's hopeful.

In the brightened up photo in the link it looks as if the motorcyclist has his back to the passing CRV, maybe holding a notepad, making a cell phone call? Probably didn't see anything. jmo

I think Mr Lacasse is in the CRV with carjacker and son. Only because it would take time to manually move someone out of the immediate area of the rest stop, and that area has been been searched extensively. Again moo.

Who knows, other than UF .

Locally we've been "on the lookout" since the Amber Alert for LF came through Thursday evening.

It feels as if in the same breath the SQ announced that L was safe we exhaled with relief, then within a beat heard that Yvon Lacasse was missing; so we gulped and started holding our breath again .

If you are the carjacker and threaten someone if they didn't give you the PIN #s to their bank card and/or credit card. They cave in and give you numbers. Would you let them go before you checked out the PIN #s at a shop or ATM?

Or maybe the cards were tap cards, no PIN required up to $50 or $100 and that\s how they were used?

 

[Snoopster]

Here's the brighter version of the photo of the important witness they are looking for...

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/missing-lachute-search-amber-alert-hospital-1.4293880

What a horrible situation. I was busy this weekend and just noticed this news item now.

 

[Unscripted]

I'm thinking that the primary plan of carjacker was to quickly obtain a new vehicle and get a jump timewise on law enforcement. In order to ensure that happening he couldn't leave behind a witness that could run to the gas station across the road and call 911, that wouldn't give much lead time.

I think Mr. Lacasse would have given out the correct PIN #s if asked. (I would have lied, I think...) Probably being able to use the debit/credit cards was just a bonus and not part of the initial carjacking MO. moo
