A father has been charged with second-degree murder in the stabbing death of his 34-year-old daughter in southern Quebec.
Alain Caza, 60, appeared at the Valleyfield courthouse Thursday morning and was formally accused of murdering Amanda Caza, a mother of one. He was remanded into custody and is due back in court on May 24.
On Wednesday at 10:30 a.m., Quebec provincial police received a 911 call about an altercation between two people at a home on Cairns Street in Ormstown, a small municipality about 60 kilometres southwest of Montreal.
When officers arrived, they found the victim's body with stab wounds. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
The suspect was arrested at the scene and was sent to hospital with minor injuries before he was questioned by the Sûreté du Québec (SQ) major crime unit.
Amanda was a mother of a young daughter. In a Mother's Day post on her Facebook account last Sunday, she posted a photo of her child with the message: "She never fails to make me laugh and I'm very lucky as well as proud to be her Mom."
