KINGSTON – Kingston police say they are investigating a potential act of intimate partner violence after arresting a man who is alleged to have killed a woman.
Police say they responded to a home in the city’s west end on Friday afternoon after a report of a disturbance.
They say a male suspect had barricaded himself inside a home on Berrywood Crescent when they arrived at the scene.
They say they found a 25-year-old woman suffering from several injuries when they entered the home, and she later died of her injuries at a local hospital.
Police say the 26-year-old suspect who was inside the home when they arrived was taken into custody and has been charged with first-degree murder.
Police say they are considering the death to be a femicide, which refers to the killing of women and girls because of their gender, and investigators ask anyone with information about the case to come forward.
