Emmanuelle Tremblay, 33, appeared in a Montreal courtroom Saturday afternoon in connection with a stabbing in the Rivière-des-Prairies borough which sent a 60-year-old-woman to hospital.
She was charged with several offences, including attempted murder, armed assault, assault and possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose.
The charges stem from events that took place inside an apartment on 64th Avenue, near Perras Boulevard, Friday night.
Police were called to the residence shortly after 8 p.m. ET. Upon arrival, officers discovered a woman with stab wounds to her upper body.
“She was conscious and alert during her transport to hospital,” police spokesperson Jean-Pierre Brabant told Global News.
The victim is said to be in stable condition and is recovering in hospital.
According to police, an argument between the woman and her daughter broke out and quickly escalated.
“The daughter stabbed the mom with an edged weapon,” Brabant said.
The daughter was arrested on site and taken into police custody.
Police confirmed Tremblay will remain detained until her next scheduled court appearance.
