    ST-JEROME, Que. - A 51-year-old man will face a first-degree murder charge in connection with the violent death of a teenage girl who was found by the side of a road in Quebec's Laurentians region.

     

    Francois Senecal was arrested Thursday in Montreal and is to appear in court in St-Jerome today.

     

    Thirteen-year-old Oceane Boyer's body was found Wednesday morning on a public road in Brownburg-Chatham, northwest of Montreal.

     

    Her body bore signs of violence and Quebec provincial police described her death as a homicide.

     

    Boyer's mother said on Facebook that Senecal was a friend of the family.

     

    Meanwhile, a school board announced it was sending a support team to the high school Boyer attended in Lachute, about 60 kilometres northwest of Montreal.
