Police investigating suspicious deaths of 2 people in downtown Sherbrooke, Que.
Quebec provincial police are investigating the deaths of a man and a woman after they were found badly injured in downtown Sherbrooke, Que., in the early hours of Sunday.
Local police were called to Ball Street around 2 a.m. by a passerby after they found a severely injured man, 38, outside. While police were erecting a perimeter around the site, they discovered a 32-year-old woman who was unconscious inside a residence.
Both were transported to hospital where the woman was declared dead shortly after. The man succumbed to his injuries a few hours later.
The investigation has been transferred to the provincial police force, the Sûreté du Québec (SQ).
SQ spokesperson Louis-Philippe Ruel says they established what the relationship was between the two victims but would not share what they found.
