Quebec provincial police say a 24-year-old man will be charged in connection with a slaying in a small town south of Quebec City.
The charges stem from the death of a man on Monday in Saint-Lambert-de-Lauzon, about 35 kilometres south of the provincial capital.

The arraignment is expected in Quebec City Tuesday.
