Jannaï Dopwell-Bailey laid to rest as calls to tackle rising Montreal crime continue

Dozens attended the teen’s memorial service at St Paul’s Anglican Church in his neighbourhood of Côte-des-Neiges.“What a sense of humour he had. He would’ve definitely gotten into acting. He had so much potential; he was capable of great things. What a person,” said Kevin George, Dopwell Bailey’s cousin and godfather.

But Dopwell-Bailey’s memorial was also a painful reminder of how all that potential and life ended so abruptly and violently. On Tuesday, Laval police arrested a suspect and charged him with assault and the attempted kidnapping of another teenager in front of the Curé-Antoine-Labelle high school in the Sainte-Rose district of Laval, an incident that involved a firearm.

Both municipal and provincial authorities say they are doing everything possible to put stricter gun control but they can’t do it alone.
