MONTREAL — Quebec provincial police say two bodies discovered in a home northeast of Montreal Wednesday morning involved a murder followed by a suicide.
Lisette Corbeil, 56, and David Joly, 49, were found dead in the home in Contrecoeur, Que.
Officers with the Richelieu-Saint-Laurent police service made the discovery after responding to a 911 call.
Major crimes detectives from the provincial police took over the investigation, and a spokeswoman said late Wednesday the initial investigation indicates Corbeil was killed before Joly took his own life. Autopsies have been ordered on the bodies.
