Laval neighbourhood shocked by 7-year-old girl's horrific death | Toronto Sun
''LAVAL — The mysterious and horrific circumstances surrounding the death of a 7-year-old girl on Sunday shocked a quiet Laval suburb and puzzled police investigators.
On Monday afternoon, on Le Boutillier St. in the city’s Chomedey district, patrol cars still sat in front of the house — a red brick home like any other on this suburban road, with a garage, a willow tree and decorative wire reindeer on the front lawn.''
''Crime scene investigators worked inside the home. They sought clues that would shed some light on the affair. So far, the events that led to the girl’s death remained a mystery, a Laval police spokesperson said at the scene.
A member of the girl’s family had called 911 around 2:30 p.m. on Sunday. Paramedics rushed to the home where they found the girl in cardiac arrest and, according to unconfirmed media reports, covered in bruises and burns to such an extent that, afterward, the first responders required psychological support. They tried to resuscitate the girl and transported her to a hospital where a doctor declared her dead.
The police began their investigation, questioning six adults from the family, all of whom were in the home when the paramedics arrived. But the officers had trouble communicating with the family — who are from Afghanistan and spoke neither French nor English — and had to find a translator who spoke Dari, an Afghan dialect of the Persian language.''
