<div>Four wounded in fisticuffs at Sikh congregation

Massive mêlée in DDO

By Robert Frank

Wounded parishioners lay on stretchers in the middle of the road in front of Gurudwara Sahib of Greater Montreal, after a massive brawl, June 12, and a member of the congregation said that a two-year-old child was struck during the altercation.

According to Montreal Police on-scene commander Marc Charbonneau, some 150 parishioners were involved in the donnybrook, 30 of whom were still fighting when police arrived on the scene at the Sikh congregation in Dollard des Ormeaux.

A neighbour who witnessed the conflict told The Suburban that the antagonists spilled out of the temple at 1:41 p.m. and engaged in fisticuffs in the front courtyard on Hyman Drive. She said that the first police to arrive on the scene had to call for backup in order to control the mêlée.
