Montreal police investigating death of 52-year-old man in Saint-Léonard
Montreal police are investigating the death of a 52-year-old man on Sunday in Montreal's Saint-Léonard borough. Earlier in the day, police said the death was considered suspicious but later confirmed it was a homicide. It is believed that there was a break-in at a residence at around 4:30 a.m. near where the victim was found, said Montreal police spokesperson Caroline Chèvrefils. A suspect, a 31-year-old man, was arrested nearby in connection with break-in and transported to an investigation centre for questioning, Chèvrefils said. He was scheduled to appear by videoconference at the Court of Quebec on Sunday afternoon. Chèvrefils stated that the break-in could possibly be related to the man's death, but that it is too early to confirm. The investigation is ongoing and no arrest has yet been made in connection with the homicide. This is the 23rd homicide in Montreal since the beginning of the year.

The suspect was driving a silver Volkswagen and allegedly pointed a gun at someone near the intersection, they said. When officers found the vehicle, they ordered the driver to turn off the vehicle and step out, but they said he did not comply. Instead, police said the driver reversed the car and struck a scooter and a vehicle on the road, before turning into an alleyway and hitting another parked car. Officers followed the vehicle and were able to arrest the driver a short time later. Mrunmay Ukey, 27, of Toronto, was arrested and charged with fail to stop for police and dangerous operation.
