Montreal man charged with assaulting Jewish father sent for psychiatric evaluation
A Montreal man charged with assaulting a Jewish father at a park last week will be sent to a psychiatric hospital for a 30-day evaluation to determine criminal responsibility. Sergio Yanes Preciado appeared before a Quebec court judge on Wednesday afternoon after meeting with a criminologist for an evaluation earlier in the day. Yanes Preciado, 23, was charged with one count of assault causing bodily harm in an attack on a 32-year-old Jewish father of three at a Montreal park last Friday afternoon. Based on the criminologist's report that referred broadly to delirious thoughts and mental health issues, a judge ordered the evaluation, which will seek to determine whether Yanes Preciado was suffering a mental disorder at the moment of the event. Yanes Preciado's case will return to court on Sept. 12.

Social Sharing Police in Maple Ridge are investigating two crime scenes kilometres apart after a man was found unresponsive with gunshot wounds inside a vehicle at a local gas station. Denise Harrington, who lives across the street, said she heard a succession of gunshots shortly after midnight Tuesday near the intersection of 240 Street and Dewdney Trunk Road. "Pop, pop, pop, pop, pop … it was really quick, one right after the other," she said Wednesday morning as police worked at the crime scene. "It's just sirens or whoop-whooping up over here," said Harrington's husband Philip about the emergency response to the violence. "And they came one right after the other, and it was just, it's just insanity." Ridge Meadows RCMP say the shooting took place in the area of 246 Street and 124 Avenue, and the victim, who police have not identified, was discovered inside a vehicle at the gas station. Police said they administered first aid, but the victim did not survive. Ridge Meadows RCMP say the shooting occurred in the area of 246th Street and 124th Avenue.
