Drug lords pull off “green helicopter” escape in PQ
by
•Three desperate drug bosses awaiting trial have escaped from the Orsainville Detention Centre near Quebec City in a green-coloured helicopter. The last time something like this happened was slightly more than a year ago when accomplices hi-jacked a chopper pilot at gunpoint to free convicts. But the 2013 escapees were quickly apprehended about 85 km away. The three break-out drug accused are identified as Yves Denis, 35, Denis Lefebvre, 53, and Serge Pomerleau, 49. All three were arrested as part of a major police operation in 2010 called Operation Ecrevisse.

•ABC daycare will open at old Leaside Town Hall
by
•ABC Academy Child Care has put up a sign to tell new parents locally that it will be opening its new daycare in the old Leaside Town Hall at 235 McRae Drive at Randolph Rd. this Fall. ABC bought the heritage building a year ago but the deal did not close until May 4, 2014. The renovated offices and rooms will be home to local children ages three months to four years. ABC already has a centre at at 1432 Bayview Ave. at Balliol Street across from St. Cuthburt’s Anglican Church. The building was renovated a couple of years ago by ABC Academy and it has been turned into a solid, good-looking asset to the community. The original ABC Academy is on Melrose Ave. near Yonge Street. Previous post
