A 17-year-old boy is under police surveillance at a Quebec City hospital, in connection with the stabbing death of his 49-year-old mother Saturday night.
Quebec City police said they received several 911 calls at around 9:30 p.m., reporting that a woman had been assaulted in the hallway of a residential building located at 2750 de la Concorde St.
When officers arrived at the scene, they discovered the woman lying on the ground with apparent stab wounds.
