78-year-old man charged with first-degree murder in partner’s death in Laval
Laval police say a 78-year-old man has been charged with first-degree murder in the death of his 77-year-old partner.
Laval police have charged a 78-year-old man, Ronald Thibault, with first-degree murder in the death of his 77-year-old partner, according to reports. The woman's body was discovered inside a condo in Laval's Chomedey district on Tuesday afternoon. Thibault was found injured and taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
He later provided an interview with investigators before prosecutors took over the case. Police are currently investigating whether the death should be classified as a femicide. This incident marks the second murder in a residential setting within the province in a single week, with Montreal police finding Leïla Ben Salem dead in her downtown apartment just last Tuesday.
