Quadeville, Ont., residents question police over response to attack on eight-year-old girl

July 13, 2025

Quadeville, a tight-knit town two hours west of Ottawa with a population in the low hundreds, finds itself in the spotlight for the worst of reasons: a brutal attack on an 8-year-old girl, which police first attributed to a wild animal but then charged a teenager from the community.

On Saturday evening, three weeks after the girl was found with life-threatening injuries, police faced questions from shaken residents of the rural Ontario town who packed the local community centre for a town hall.
