A man was found unconscious in a residence, shortly before 1 pm, and his death was pronounced by a doctor at the hospital about an hour southeast of Montreal.

“At the scene, officers arrested another man who will be interviewed by investigators,” said Surete du Quebec (SQ) spokesperson Nicolas Scholtus.
