Officers from the Service de police de la ville de Montreal responded to a 911 call about the girl around 3 a.m. on Thursday, at which point they made their way to an apartment on Desautels St. near the Hochelaga St. intersection. There, they found the girl – who had been injured by a sharp object – alongside a 36-year-old woman.
