Police in Longueuil, Que., have arrested two people in connection with the violent death of Manon Boisvert.
The 54-year-old victim’s body was discovered inside a car in a parking lot this past January in the city on Montreal’s south shore.
At the time, police believed Boisvert was killed inside the vehicle and her body bore signs of violence. Investigators were seeking information from the public about her death.
In a statement Thursday, police said a 46-year-old man and a 36-year-old woman had been arrested in connection with Boisvert’s death.
“It is important to mention that our investigation established that the victim had been targeted and that it was not a victim chosen at random,” police said.
Police say the pair are expected to face charges. The case has been handed to the provincial Crown prosecutor’s office.
