Two Teens Found Dead In Northern Alberta Earlier This Week Were Shot: RCMP

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 28 Jul, 2016 02:38 PM
    EDMONTON — RCMP say two teens found dead in northern Alberta earlier this week were both shot.
     
    The body of Dylan Laboucan, who was 17, was found Monday night on the Whitefish River First Nation.
     
    The body of his girlfriend, 19-year-old Cory Grey, was found the following day in a rural area outside of High Prairie.
     
    Mounties say police have collected significant evidence in the homicide investigation and feel strongly that the shootings were not random.
     
    Louis Grey has said his daughter and Laboucan were timid and had no enemies.
     
    The couple had both been accepted to study at Northern Lakes College in Slave Lake, Alta., in the fall and were planning to move into an apartment there together next month.
     
    "The findings of the medical examiner are that both Laboucan and Grey are the victims of homicide. The medical examiner has also concluded that both victims were shot," RCMP said Thursday in a release.
     
    "With this critical evidence now known by the RCMP, the investigation is focused upon arresting the person or persons responsible for these murders."
