Several people were killed Sunday night after a group of shooters open fire inside a Quebec City mosque.

Approximately 40 attendees were at the Quebec City Islamic Cultural Center for evening prayers at the time of the incident. The mosque’s president, Mohamed Yangui, was not at the service when the shooting started, but said he received calls from those at the mosque shortly after the shooting started.
