Police in Vancouver have confirmed that one of three victims in a fatal triple stabbing in the city this month was the former spouse of the man accused in the attacks.

Vancouver police say 50-year-old Jinfeng Guan was the spouse of 54-year-old Viet Quy John Ly, who is in custody and facing two counts of second-degree murder.

Police also say an additional murder charge against Ly has not been laid after Guan died in the hospital last week from her injuries.

Police were called Sept. 5 to a residential building near Joyce Street and Vanness Avenue, where the bodies of 55-year-old Jianghui Deng and 54-year-old Chunxiu Yin were found.
