Domestic-Related Homicides in Ajax

Police are investigating a domestic-related double homicide in Ajax after two people were found deceased at a residence this morning and a third person was discovered with serious injuries.

On Wednesday March 14, 2018, at approximately 11:00 a.m. police were called to a residence on Hilling Drive in Ajax after a female, who went to check on the wellbeing of her female friend, was met with a male at the residence. She was refused entry and the male left the area in a vehicle.

Officers arrived to discover the body of a 15-year-old male and the body of a 39-year-old female. Also discovered in the house was a seriously injured 13-year-old female, who was taken to a local hospital and later transferred to a Toronto trauma centre. She remains in serious condition with life-threatening injuries. All three victims are related.

Police searched the area for the male who was seen leaving the residence. A vehicle associated with the male was discovered abandoned near Brock Road and Highway 401. The area was searched extensively, but the male was not located.
