Quebec provincial police have narrowed the search for 44-year-old Martin Carpentier, who is wanted in connection with the death of his two young daughters.
On Monday, police spokesperson Sgt. Ann Mathieu said officers are now focusing on the heavily wooded area around Rang Saint-Lazare, a country road in Saint-Apollinaire, southwest of Quebec City.
Mathieu said the officers found objects in that area Sunday, leading them to believe Carpentier is nearby. They are looking at the possibility Carpentier might be dead or unable to move.
“It’s not impossible that he’s still alive, but we have to consider that, with the time passing by, maybe he’s not,” Mathieu said.
“We’re still searching. We never saw Martin Carpentier. We never had any contact with him. The information that we possess is related to the citizens that report having seen him.”
