An 88-year-old man is dead after he and his wife, 86, were assaulted inside their home in St-Hubert, Que., on Montreal’s South Shore.
Local police were called to the residence on Renaud Street just after 2 a.m. Sunday.
The man was transported to hospital where he later succumbed to his injuries. His partner had injuries to her upper body but is out of danger, according to police spokesperson Jacqueline Pierre.
A woman, described by Pierre as a person of interest, was detained at the scene and taken in for questioning. Her relationship to the victims, if any, isn’t yet known.
The dead-end street is closed due to a heavy police presence Sunday morning.
