Police say the victim has not shared details of the event, and witnesses have also refused to provide their accounts. 

“It’s hard to know the story when the victim doesn’t want to collaborate with police,” said Montreal police spokesperson Caroline Chèvrefils.

With several residential buildings in the area, investigators are working to determine whether the incident happened inside or outside.
