CP NewsAlert: Jury finds Quebec man guilty in 2023 truck attack in Amqui, Que.
By Canadian Press on June 21, 2025.
RIMOUSKI — A Quebec man has been found guilty of three counts of 1st degree murder in the deaths of three men he struck with his truck.
Steeve Gagnon learned his fate following two days of deliberation by the jury, who found him guilty on all counts.
Gagnon was on trial for three counts of first-degree murder and two counts of attempted murder of nine other people in March 2023 in Amqui, about 350 kilometres northeast of Quebec City.
The Crown had argued the acts that led to the deaths were intentional and premeditated, saying he had formed and adapted a plan that resulted in pedestrians being run down on the road as he accelerated his truck onto the sidewalk.
The accused, meanwhile, had argued the deaths were an accident in a moment of inattention when he picked up an e-cigarette from the cab of his truck.
More coming.
