Police in south shore Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu were called to a local mosque early Monday when the staff discovered a hunk of concrete had been thrown through a window.
The front window was broken some time after the last person locked up at 10 p.m. Sunday and when the first person opened up the building at 5:45 a.m. Monday. When the busted glass was discovered, local police were called.
“The place is not protected by an alarm system and there was no surveillance camera,” Sgt. Luc Tougas said.
Police don’t have any suspects or witnesses.
On Oct. 20, Martin Couture-Rouleau, 25, ran down Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent, 53, in the parking lot outside a Canadian Forces recruitment office in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, southeast of Montreal. Another soldier was injured but survived the hit and run.
Cops shot Couture-Rouleau dead following a car chase.
The Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu mosque was one of four targeted in the province over the weekend. The others had derogatory messages posted on their doors.
