2 suspects arrested in connection with fatal Old Montreal hostel fire

Montreal police say they have arrested two suspects in connection with a major building fire in Old Montreal that killed two people last week. 

A suspicious fire broke out in a three-storey, 100-year-old building on Notre-Dame Street last Friday around 2:30 a.m. 

The building housed a restaurant on the main floor and a hostel upstairs.

Léonor Geraudie, 43, and her seven-year-old daughter Vérane Reynaud-Geraudie, both from France, died in the blaze. 

Police are expected to hold a news conference at 3 p.m. CBC News will livestream the conference in this story.
