Police investigate the scene where the two Canadian Forces members were struck
A deadly attack on two soldiers has prompted Canada to raise its terror alert from low to medium.
Twenty-five-year-old Martin Rouleau is thought to have killed one and injured the other when he rammed his car into the men in a Quebec car park.
After witnesses said he had used his car as a weapon to attack the soldiers, Rouleau was shot dead following a police chase.
It turns out Rouleau, who was an Islam convert, had been detained by police last summer as a suspected militant.
He was one of 90 people being tracked by officers on suspicion of planning to commit acts of terror abroad.
The incident is the first fatal attack on Canadian soil tied to Islamist militants and comes as six fighter jets left to join the fight against ISIL extremists in Iraq.
