Matthew Bouffard 29, of Toronto charged in death of three-week-old girl

Aggravated assault charges laid against a 29-year-old Toronto man will likely be upgraded to murder after a baby girl rushed to hospital last week died of her injuries.

Just before 11 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 18, emergency crews were called to an apartment at 263 Pharmacy Ave. in Scarborough.

One there, paramedics encountered a three-week-old girl suffering from what’s described as obvious signs of trauma and immediately called for police.

The infant was rushed to hospital where she was placed on life support.

Despite the best efforts of medical staff, she died on Sunday.

Twenty-nine year-old Matthew Bouffard was charged at the time with aggravated assault, but police say those charges will be re-examined following an autopsy scheduled for Monday morning.
