The Quebec man believed to have killed his two young children before taking his own life on Saturday had been recently arrested for harassing his spouse, CTV News has learned.
The harassment, which wasn't violent in nature, occurred "a few days" before the killings, a source with inside knowledge of the situation confirmed.
Property records tie Ian Lamontagne to a house in Notre-Dame-des-Prairies, about 80 kilometres north of Montreal, that was swarmed by police officers Saturday afternoon.
A man and two young children were found dead inside that home on Patrick Street around 2 p.m. Although police have not disclosed the nature of the deaths, they said signs point to a double-murder-suicide.
Lamontagne's Facebook page contains many photos of his two twin boys, both of pre-school age.
According to his LinkedIn profile, he was the founder and president of the company Kevlar Cybersecurity, with an extensive background in IT and cybersecurity.
An investigation is underway by the Surete Quebec's major crimes unit.
