On Saturday, police said the 21-year-old man, who was hospitalized with what appeared to be self-inflicted injuries, was an “important witness.”
The suspect was still in hospital Sunday morning and had yet to meet with investigators, according to Sûreté du Québec (SQ) spokeswoman Audrey-Anne Bilodeau.
“He could be met by investigators later today, if his health condition improves,” she said.
