Two individuals were arrested soon after the shots rang out. Willliam Terasse and Samuel Boutin appeared in court on Thursday afternoon by video conference. Police confirmed that this was an event in relation to the ongoing drug war.
An arson of a stolen vehicle had taken place an hour before the shots were fired in Saguenay. The arson had taken place on Chemin Saint-Andre in Jonquiere. Police have not linked the two events together and the arson might possibly only have been a coincidence.
