A lone gunman opened fire at midnight on Tuesday at a celebration rally for Pauline Marois, Quebec's newly elected premier, killing one and wounding another. Richard Henry Bain, 62, was dressed in a bathrobe, face mask and armed with two guns when he opened fire in the back alley of the Montreal Metropolis auditorium. Bain then lit a small fire at the venue's backdoor before he was arrested by Montreal Police. Marois' security detail rushed her off stage as the shooting began. She was unharmed. Police are still trying to determine the motive for the shooting.
