The death of a Quebec woman is considered Montreal's first homicide of 2015, even though she died of injuries sustained during a botched robbery attempt four years ago.
Hélène Leduc, 62, died this week, four years after she was shot in the neck while working at the Baie D'Urfe SAQ outlet in October 2010. She became paralyzed from the neck down as a result of the incident, which is believed to be a botched robbery attempt.
Montreal police report that a coroner has ruled that Leduc's death was a direct result of the shooting. They are also describing the 2010 shooting as the first homicide of 2015 because it is the first dossier they have opened this year.
And now the men wanted in the shooting has become homicide suspects.
In the months following the shooting, police arrested three suspects, but never laid charges due to a lack of evidence. To date, no one has been charged in the shooting of Leduc.
The suspects were described as about 25 years old at the time of the shooting, and English-speakers.
During the incident, one of the two shot at Leduc before both men fled the SAQ. Leduc was working alone in the store at the time.
Ambulance officials transported Leduc to hospital after being alerted of her condition by the next customer who entered the store. Police made the surveillance tapes public in hopes of finding a man that might have witnessed the suspects enter the store.
Prior to 1998, suspects could not be charged with wrongful death-related charges if the victim died 367 days or more after the incident.
That rule, known as a year-and-a-day provision, was abolished in an amendment to the Canadian Criminal Code in 1998. The provision, dating back to 14th century England, was also rescinded in the U.K. in 1996.
