SURREY, B.C. — Details on the R-C-M-P investigation of three homicides in northern British Columbia are coming out tomorrow.
The R-C-M-P says it will release its investigative findings after the bodies of 18-year-old Bryer Schmegelsky and 19-year-old Kam McLeod were found in a remote part of Manitoba on August 7th.
Police say the two teenage suspects, who were the subject of a manhunt that spanned Western Canada, died of self-inflicted gunshot wounds.
Schmegelsky and McLeod were charged with the murder of Leonard Dyck, a University of B-C botany lecturer, and were also suspects in the deaths of American Chynna Deese and her Australian boyfriend Lucas Fowler.
