Quebec court sentences Abdirazak Mahdi Ahmed, 23, to 66 months in prison for a 2023 shooting at Montreal's Yeshiva Gedola, a Jewish school. The attack occurred on November 12, 2023, shortly before 5:00 a.m. on Deacon Road in Montreal's Côte-des-Neiges neighborhood. Ahmed fired a 9 mm handgun toward the building's door from a stolen vehicle before fleeing the scene. DNA, cellphone records, and undercover officer statements linked Ahmed to the shooting, though an antisemitic motive could not be established.
