Montreal police continue hunt for suspect in Quebec’s 14th femicide this year

Montreal police are still looking for a man they suspect murdered his 32-year-old partner on Monday in what is believed to be the province’s 14th femicide this year.

They said today there is still no sign of the 30-year-old suspect seen fleeing the apartment where the victim was found.

Police said they responded to a 911 call just before 5 p.m. Monday and found the body of the 32-year-old woman, and they also found a child inside the apartment.

On Tuesday, police said they searched a river separating Montreal with its northern suburb after the suspect’s vehicle was found near a bridge.
