Homicide investigators are looking into a suspicious death in Richmond.
Mounties were called to the 11900 block of Aztec Street yesterday around 1:30 p.m.
They arrived to find a husband and wife in medical distress.
The man was pronounced dead while the woman was taken to hospital. She was conscious, but incoherent.
Sergeant Jennifer Pound of the Integrated Homicide team says the 61-year-old woman has been apprehended under the Mental Health Act and remains in hospital for assessment.
“She’s certainly a person of interest, I can’t say she’s a suspect at this point, but there’s a lot of questions that the investigators are looking to sort thru as well.”
Pound says the husband had an extensive medical history and an autopsy will be conducted to determine cause of death.
