The police got information that a black SUV was involved in the case.
Officers spotted a vehicle matching this description on the side of Highway 10, and a high-risk operation ensued.
A video obtained by TVA Nouvelles shows police officers approaching a black SUV, weapons in hand, ready to intervene.
At the end of the intervention, Mr. They realized the vehicle had nothing to do with Woolley’s murder.
Northbound Highway 10 was closed to traffic for several minutes to allow for the operation.
A burnt-out vehicle matching the description was found in Pointe-Saint-Charles and may be the vehicle sought by authorities.
