Montreal police arrested five suspects following two separate investigations involving crimes targeting a Verdun bar and a downtown restaurant.

According to police, a suspect was arrested for an attempted arson attack on a bar on Wellington Street in the Verdun borough on July 12.

“The investigation led by the Arson and Explosives Unit, in collaboration with neighbourhood police stations, led to the arrest of a 14-year-old suspect in Montreal,” the SPVM said in a press release.

“A search of his residence also led to the seizure of evidence. The suspect was released with conditions and a promise to appear before the Youth Division of the Court of Quebec.”

Two other 14-year-old suspects had previously been arrested in connection with this case. The teens appeared in court in September to face charges of attempted arson, possession of incendiary material, conspiracy, disguise for a criminal purpose and mischief.

Police say the investigation is ongoing, as the bar was also targeted in June 2024.
