Police say six people remain unaccounted for after the major fire that ripped through a historic building in Old Montreal on March 16.
One of those people is 18-year-old Charlie Lacroix.
"A friend of my daughter told us that she was there the night before, so we went to the police station and found out she had placed two calls at 911 in a period of three minutes saying that they couldn't get out because they were no windows in the room," her father Louis-Philippe Lacroix said.
Lacroix will be at the site of the fire on Saturday to try and find some healing and move forward.
"Hearing this news and having to break it to my boy and people is seriously the worst thing to go through as a parent," Lacroix said.
Another of the missing people is 75-year-old photographer Camille Mahuex.
