Police say a 58-year-old woman found dead following a house explosion earlier this week in Kitchener was a victim of homicide.
Waterloo regional police say the body of Edresilda Haan and a man suffering serious injuries were found behind the house following Wednesday’s blast.
investigators will determine whether Edresilda died before or after the explosion once they have safe access to the home.
Police say they want to talk to the man, who has been identified by family members as the woman’s husband about, about the incident, but say he isn’t a suspect at this time.

Police say that the force of the blast demolished the home and caused damage to the neighbouring homes.
