Suspect vehicle information
Investigation has also determined the suspects drove a vehicle to the scene and left in it after stealing and setting the home owner’s vehicle on fire (in previous releases we advised the suspects stole the home owner’s vehicle and left the scene. The stolen vehicle was located abandoned on a nearby grid road, on fire).
RCMP do not have further descriptors of this suspect vehicle to provide. Investigators know the suspect vehicle traveled east and west of the intersection of Highways #637 and #9 after the homicide occurred.
Items stolen from residence; ongoing investigation
Three long-barreled firearms and a significant amount of ammunition was stolen from the victim’s residence. These items were being stored appropriately prior to them being taken.
The specifics of the homicide are still under investigation at this time. RCMP will continue to release more information to the public as they are able to.
RCMP ask the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity or information to police immediately by calling 911 or your local RCMP detachment or police service.
