Kosher Montreal Eatery Victim Of Arson Attack


The Jewish owned Chops Resto Bar steak and sushi restaurant in Montreal was firebombed early on Thursday morning. According to the Montreal Gazette, two men in hoods were seen fleeing the scene.

A Molotov cocktail shattered the large front window at about 4 a.m. on Thursday, starting a fire that was largely extinguished by an emergency sprinkler system. The first call to the fire department came at 4:02 a.m., to which seven vehicles responded.

According to the website, Chops is “Montreal’s finest Asian fusion steak house & sushi bar, where only premium kosher ingredients are used.” Authorities don’t yet know if this was an anti-Semitic attack. It follows two fire bombings that occurred in Montreal on Wednesday morning.
