Gatineau police cordon off motel for possible armed man

Gatineau police, bolstered by the force’s SWAT team, surrounded an Old Gatineau motel Thursday after officers answering a robbery call were told that there might be a firearm in one of the rooms.
Police answering a call at the Ritz Motel, 137 Gréber Blvd., at about 9 a.m. were “informed” that there were suspicions that a weapon might be in one of the rooms.
The officers called for backup and police ringed the low-rise motel, although the street was not closed.
