On Friday, Marc-André Simoneau, who is from Montreal North, left his girlfriend’s apartment and headed for his office party in Beloeil. He texted his girlfriend, Mélanie Chicoine-Cotnoir, throughout the night, including sending her photos.

She last heard from him at 9 p.m., she told the Montreal Gazette.

At first, she wasn’t worried. He had told her that if he had too much to drink, he would sleep at a co-worker’s house. If not, he would drive back to her apartment after the party.

Coworkers told Chicoine-Cotnoir that Simoneau left the party at around 11 p.m., presumably to go to her apartment in Île-Perrot. But he never made it there.

His crashed car was found by the SQ on Highway 40, near Côte-Vertu, at 12:41 a.m., said Chicoine-Cotnoir, but he was not in it.
