Man in 'cruel, savage' Quebec daycare attack merits high

LAVAL - The Quebec man who killed two children and injured six others when he drove a city bus into a Montreal-area daycare in 2023 committed an act so brutal that he must be considered a high-risk offender, a Crown prosecutor argued on Friday in Superior Court.

And while Pierre Ny St-Amand was declared not criminally responsible for his actions because of a mental disorder, there is a "significant likelihood" that he will be violent again, prosecutor Simon Blais told the judge.
