    White university student Alexandre Bissonnette has been named as the sole suspect accused of killing six men at a Quebec City mosque.
    Bissonnette, 27, was arrested alongside Moroccan-Canadian Mohamed el Khadir on Sunday night after six men were shot dead at the Quebec City Islamic Cultural Center during evening prayers.
    On Monday afternoon, Sûreté du Québec, the investigating police force, confirmed one of the men was no longer facing charges.
    A source later told Reuters police were looking at Bissonnette as a 'lone wolf'.
    The political sciences and anthropology student, who is from the affluent Quebec City suburb Cap-Rouge, will appear in court sometime on Monday or Tuesday.
    Other students described him to DailyMail.com as a pro-Trump loner but a timid man who didn't seem capable of committing an act of terror.

    Six men aged between 39 and 60 were killed at the mosque and five remain in a critical condition in intensive care at Quebec City's Hôpital de l'Enfant-Jésus after the killings on Sunday night.
    Twelve others had less serious injuries and another 39 escaped from the mosque unharmed. Among the victims is a government IT worker, the mosque's concierge, a halal butcher who worked next door and an Algerian-Canadian professor from the university where Bissonnette is enrolled.
    They were shot as they observed evening prayers at the mosque which said security had become a 'major' concern.
    El Khadir was picked up by police at the mosque but Bissonnette fled in his Mitsubishi and was arrested in nearby Ile d'Orleans around 20 minutes later after calling 911, Le Soleil reports. Police found two rifles and an AK-47 in the car. Court clerk Isabelle Ferland earlier identified the pair as the two men arrested in connection with the shooting.
    Police are not seeking anyone else in connection with the attack which was is being treated as an act of terror.
