by · CityNews

The two women killed at a home in Courtice have been identified in new court documents.

Michael Belhu, 33, has been charged with second-degree murder in the deaths of Katrina Zwolinksi, 30, and Laurie Crew, 67.

In an update Thursday evening police revealed that Belhu was the ex-boyfriend of Katrina and the father of the child who was also on scene.

“The child has been identified as the son of Katrina and the grandson of Laurie. The child was not injured,” a release states.

Previous court documents show the accused had been charged with mischief for allegedly damaging Crew’s front door on Moulton Court in February, the same address where the women were found.

Durham police say they were called to the home on Tuesday around 1 p.m. to perform a wellness check.

The women were both found with obvious signs of trauma and pronounced dead. A child was located in the home but was uninjured.

Belhu was taken into custody without incident.
