Montreal police (SPVM) have arrested a suspect in connection with the deadly stabbing of a 37-year-old man on the platform of the Guy-Concordia Metro station last weekend.

The suspect, a 32-year-old man, was arrested Tuesday evening in the city’s Montreal North borough.

He is expected to appear in court Wednesday to face a charge of second-degree murder, police said.

The man was sent to hospital where he was pronounced dead.

The man’s death is the 29th homicide of the year in Montreal.
