6 dead after shooting at mosque in Canada

QUEBEC CITY —Six people were killed in a shooting at a Quebec City mosque during evening prayers, the president of the center said Sunday. Authorities reported two arrests in what Quebec's premier and Canada's prime minister called an act of terrorism.

Early reports said five people were killed, but in a news conference early Monday morning, authorities confirmed six deaths with 8 people injured. The extent of their injuries are unknown.

Quebec City Islamic Cultural Centre President Mohamed Yangui reported the first number of dead late Sunday in a telephone call from the provincial capital.

Yangui said the shooting happened in the men's section of the mosque. He said five males had died and he worried that some were children. He said he wasn't at the center when the attack occurred, but he got some details from people on the scene.

This happened the same day that Canada announced they would take in all the refugees we wouldn't! How's that working out for you, Canada?????

Terrible tragedy. I am convinced the travel ban is the right thing to do. What is it going to take for the left to realize this? Do we need more San Bernardino incidents or will the left sluff it off as work place violence or gun violence?

Why do I have the feeling that when everything comes out, it will either be another sect of Islam or some Muslim with a grudge against another. Maybe because they have 2 suspects and won't release a name or picture?
