Two women were killed and a third is in critical condition after a stabbing attack at an apartment building west of Montreal Thursday morning, Quebec provincial police say.

The Sûreté du Québec (SQ) said two women were pronounced dead at the scene of the armed assault in Vaudreuil-Dorion, an off-island suburb of Montreal. Their identities and ages have not been released.
The SQ said they were called to the highrise on Émile Bouchard Street just before noon and found three victims with serious stab wounds.
The third victim, a 70-year-old woman, was sent to a hospital in Montreal, according to a paramedic spokesperson.
Police said the suspect was also sent to hospital with minor injuries and will be questioned later in the day by investigators.
