A mother and her seven-year-old daughter from France were killed in a fire that ravaged a century-old building in Old Montreal early Friday morning – a blaze that major crimes detectives and the arson squad are investigating as “suspicious.”
Montreal police insp. David Shane identified the victims as 43-year-old Léonor Geraudie and seven-year-old Vérane Reynaud Geraudie at a Saturday afternoon news conference held a block away from the site of the blaze.
