The Sûreté du Québec (SQ) says the body of a man they believe to be Martin Carpentier was discovered in Saint-Apollinaire on Monday. Mike Armstrong has more.

Officers said a tip by a resident led to the discovery at around 7 p.m. on Monday evening.

Police said they will not be commenting any further but will hold a briefing in coming days.

Carpentier, 44, was the subject of an intense manhunt after his two daughters, six-year-old Romy and 11-year-old Norah, were found dead in a wooded area in Saint-Apollinaire on July 11.
