Bail hearing Tuesday for Quebec teens in alleged murder plot involving peers
ST-HYACINTHE, Que. — Two Quebec teens facing multiple charges in an alleged murder conspiracy plot against three of their peers are scheduled to attend a bail hearing Tuesday.
The two boys, who are 14 and 16, were arrested last Wednesday and arraigned Thursday.
Provincial police said a search at the Polyvalente Hyacinthe-Delorme high school in St-Hyacinthe yielded evidence the youths were on the verge of carrying out the plot against three classmates.
On Monday, the local school board released a statement by the school principal, who said the institution acted right away when informed of the alleged plot.
