 The favorite weapon of both biker gangs was dynamite stolen from mines and construction sites.The use of dynamite came with a high risk of wounding or killing bystanders, as well as risk to those using it as a weapon.After Pelletier was killed, the independent drug dealers of Montreal formed the "Alliance to fight the Angels" headed by his younger brother, Harold Pelletier, whose first act was an attempt to assassinate Boucher in November 1994.
