Police were also called shortly after to a second location nearby, on des Galeries d'Anjou Boulevard, where they found a 17-year-old boy who had a "superficial" gunshot wound, according to Jean-Pierre Brabant, a spokesperson for Montreal police.
The boy has since been released from hospital. Police say he is known to them and is cooperating with investigators.
As of Friday morning, no arrests have been made and the investigation is ongoing.
Since the beginning of 2021, 32 people have been murdered on the territory, the force confirms.
