Police in Quebec are investigating after someone shot a high-ranking
member of the Hells Angels while he was riding a motorcycle in Lachute
on Saturday.
Police found Phillip (Phil) Boudreault, 41, a vice-president of the
Hells Angels' Nomads chapter in Ontario and former Olympian, lying in
a ditch, with his motorcycle at his side.
Sources said he suffered a punctured lung in the attack and is in
hospital being treated for his injuries. He reportedly shielded his
girlfriend -- who was riding on the back of the bike - from the
gunfire and she was unhurt.
Gord Apolloni, head coach at Top Glove Boxing Academy in Sudbury and
Boudreault's former trainer, said he received calls on Sunday
confirming the news.
"He was going to a bike show near Montreal," Apolloni said.
Surete du Quebec spokesman Sgt. Daniel Thibodeau said the shooting
happened around 10:30 a.m. Saturday morning.
"We're still looking for the two suspects who were possibly aboard a
greyish blue SUV," Thibodeau said on Sunday. "(The shooting) is
related to outlaw biker gang activities."
While the Nomads chapter is based in Ontario, its membership consists
of many former Quebecers who have criminal records for drug
trafficking in the province. The chapter's presence in Quebec, and
specifically in Montreal, has been evident for several years after
almost every member of the Hells Angels based in Quebec was arrested
in April 2009 in Operation SharQc. The biker gang has since been able
to re-establish at least two of its chapters in Quebec.
Operation SharQc was an investigation that focused on a very violent
period between 1994 and 2002 when the Hells Angels in Quebec were at
war with members of rival criminal organizations. More than 160 people
were killed during the conflict.
Dubbed "The Sudbury Sensation," Boudreault represented Canada in the
light welterweight division at the 1996 Summer Olympics. He made it to
the second round, when he was beaten by Eduard Zakharov of Russia.
Since then, Boudreault has spent much of his time getting in trouble
with the law, including a brutal attack on a father and son in March
2004. One of the victims suffered a broken jaw in three places, the
loss of some teeth and part of his jawbone, and bruised ribs.
Boudreault was declared a long-term offender in August 2005 for the
assault and served two years in prison.
Nomads chapters are considered "elite" among the Hells Angels. Police
experts have testified in past court cases that the Nomads designation
means the chapter's members can operate without the territorial
limitations other chapters are generally expected to respect when it
comes to activities like drug trafficking.
