Police south of Montreal are investigating, and a school centre has asked parents not to allow their children to attend an after-prom party, after "worrying rumours that unsavoury events were planned by certain individuals related to drugs and non-consensual sexual acts."
The Grandes-Seigneuries school service centre (CSSDGS) on Montreal's South Shore was made aware that high school students had planned to attend a party after prom on June 29 in Saint-Calixte, about 75 kilometres north of Montreal.
Noovo Info learned that photos of girls were circled as potential targets for non-consensual sexual acts in a graduation yearbook at Magdeleine Secondary School in La Prairie.
The service centre said that it was not involved with planning the event and that no staff would be there.
The Roussillon police were made aware of the rumours and recommended parents keep their kids away from the party.
"An investigation is underway by the police department to determine the accuracy of the information obtained and to make arrests if necessary," a news release from the service centre said.
The Quebec provincial police (SQ) have also been contacted for assistance.
