By Lucas Casaletto and Mark Douglas

Toronto police have opened a homicide investigation after a woman died as a result of serious injuries at a residence in North York.

Police arrived at the home, located at Yorkdale Crescent and Lovilla Boulevard, to conduct a wellness check just after 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday.

Const. David Hopkinson says the victim was found with obvious signs of trauma. Life-saving measures were performed but the victim was pronounced dead at the scene.

Hopkinson says the injuries sustained by the victim are deemed suspicious and homicide detectives have taken over the investigation.

On Thursday, police identified the victim as 33-year-old Kim Gagne of Toronto.

Landlords tell 680 NEWS a 31-year old male tenant, who only moved into the residence a couple of weeks ago, came upstairs Tuesday night bleeding from cuts on his neck and arm, asking for bandages.

The following morning is when police arrived to conduct the wellness check.

There is no information on suspects and the investigation is ongoing.
