Police have arrested a Toronto woman in connection with three recent homicides and investigators say that they believe two of the victims may have been “randomly targeted.”
The suspect, 30-year-old Sabrina Kauldhar, was taken into custody at a hotel in Burlington at around 5:45 p.m. on Thursday.
She has since been charged with one count of second-degree murder in connection with an Oct. 1 homicide in Toronto and two counts of first-degree murder in connection with homicides that took place in Hamilton and Niagara Falls in the days that followed.
“I think by definition she is a serial killer. By definition I think that is a fair comment,” Niagara Regional Police Service Chief Bill Fordy said during a Friday afternoon press conference.
“It’s always difficult speculate on what somebody would do. What I can say is that I am very pleased that we were able to bring this to closure in a quick manner. We have three families here that have lost their loved ones and I think when we have somebody who has committed three offences in a real tight timeline like that there is the risk of them committing further offences.”
The first incident involved a woman in her 60s who was found deceased in a home near Keele and Dundas streets in Toronto on Tuesday afternoon.
Police say that the second incident occurred in John Allan Park in the City of Niagara Falls the following day.
