A woman suffered serious injuries on Tuesday evening following an assault in a dwelling on Sacré-Coeur Street in Longueuil.
According to the Longueuil police, the event occurred around 8:30 p.m. in a family context.
At the end of the evening, a suspect in his forties was intercepted near the residence, said Jean-Pierre Voutsinos, spokesman for the Longueuil agglomeration police department (SPAL). He was to be met in the hours to come by the investigators.

However, the circumstances surrounding the assault remained unclear.
For its part, the Cooperative of Ambulance Technicians of Montérégie (CETAM) indicated that it had transported a patient in her twenties to a hospital center.
She had “serious injuries”, but was conscious during transport, said Alexandre Barbeau, spokesman for CETAM.
SPAL investigators were expected on site to try to unravel the ins and outs of this case.
