Quebec Provincial Police officers are teaming up with investigators northwest of Montreal to investigate the death of a 71-year-old man they’re describing as suspicious.

       Police were called to a home in St-Eustache, Que., around 4 a.m. this morning and found the man badly injured inside.

       The man was taken to hospital where he was pronounced dead.

       Police say a man, 45, was also found at the home and was taken for questioning.

       Surete du Quebec spokeswoman Sgt. Helene Saint-Pierre says physical marks on the victim’s body led investigators to treat the death as a possible homicide.

       Police didn’t confirm whether the two men knew each other or release the identity of the victim.
