A 35-year-old woman was bludgeoned at her home last night and is now reported to be in a critical condition.
Reports indicate that the woman, who has since been identified as Seema Seenauth, was at her Ste. Madeleine apartment, around 9:30 pm, when she is said to have had a disagreement with a relative.
Screams reportedly were heard coming from the apartment.
When checks were made, Seenauth was found lying on the ground with a wound to her head and in a semi-conscious state.
She was taken to hospital for urgent care.
Guardian Media understands she is in critical condition.
Investigations are ongoing.
