Manhunt Suspects Died By Apparent Suicide: Police

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 13 Aug, 2019 06:49 PM

    Autopsies have confirmed two bodies found in northern Manitoba last week are those of two teenage murder suspects, who shot themselves.

     

    Police say two firearms were found with 18-year-old Bryer Schmegelsky and 19-year-old Kam McLeod. Forensic analysis is underway to definitively confirm the weapons are connected with the investigations into the deaths of three people in northern B.C.

     

    Authorities say it appears the teens were dead for a number of days before the bodies were recovered.

     

    The RCMP say once their review is completed over the next few weeks, they will provide families with an update then release information publicly.
