A New Brunswick man has been charged with first-degree murder in connection with the death of his spouse, who has yet to be found.
Police say they arrested Gilles Moreau on Saturday after conducting a well-being check on Brigitte Pelletier at a residence on Splude Street in Dundee, N.B.
Police say the 54-year-old Dundee woman has yet to be located, but evidence and information they gathered led them to lay a charge of first-degree murder against her 56-year-old husband.
Moreau was remanded into custody. The Dundee man is due to appear in Campbellton provincial court on Tuesday.
The investigation is ongoing.
