A fourth person has died following the horrific tractor accident on Wednesday in Notre-Dame-de-Stanbridge, in Montérégie Quebec.
“Unfortunately, Friday evening, we were informed of the death of one of the two adults, who was in critical condition in the hospital,” said Quebec provincial police Sgt. Claude Denis.Three children aged five and under were also killed in the tragedy, which also injured five others.
The tractor driver, a 38-year-old man, was charged at the Granby courthouse on Thursday with criminal negligence causing the deaths of three young children and criminal negligence causing bodily harm to six others. These charges will now likely be changed with the confirmed death of a fourth person. “It is a choice of the prosecution to have done it this way, but both would have been possible,” she said.
