Montreal police arrested a 19-year-old man Tuesday in connection with the shooting death of 18-year-old Christopher Densky Damier over the weekend in the Ville-Marie borough.
The suspect, Massamba Fall, was charged with manslaughter, which carries a minimum sentence of four years’ imprisonment.
He appeared in court Tuesday afternoon and is expected back on Wednesday, according to Quebec’s prosecutor’s office.
On Sunday, just before 2 a.m., police responded to a call regarding an injured person in an apartment on Saint-André Street, near Ontario Street.
Upon arrival, they found Damier unconscious on the floor with a gunshot wound to his upper body. He was transported to hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
His death marked the third homicide of 2026 on the Service de police de la Ville de Montréal’s territory.
