At least 6 killed, 8 wounded in attack on Quebec mosque

At least six people are dead and eight wounded after gunmen opened fire Sunday evening at
a mosque in Quebec City, Canada as evening prayers were ending.
According to the Quebec provincial police, two suspects are in custody.
There's no further information on the suspects, but they do not believe others were directly
involved in the attack.
Local media reported there were between 60 and 100 people inside the mosque at the time,
including children.
However the police said the victims range in age from 35 to "about 70."
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau called it an act of terrorism against Muslims.
The Quebec Islamic Cultural Center is the same facility where last June a pig's head
was left on the doorstep.
Muslims are prohibited by religion to touch pigs.
