Canada military join police scouring remote Manitoba for triple murder suspects

Canadian police enlisted the help of military aircraft to scour harsh terrain in northern Manitoba, British Columbia, on Saturday in the search for two teenagers wanted in the killings of three people. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) were also conducting door-to-door house searches on Saturday in and around Gillam, Manitoba, after starting the searches on Friday in hopes of discovering clues to the suspects' whereabouts.

The large manhunt continued several days after the RCMP charged Kam McLeod, 19, and Bryer Schmegelsky, 18, with the second-degree murder of Leonard Dyck, 64, a botany professor at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. The pair were originally reported as missing but later they were described as suspects in the killings too of Chynna Deese, 24, of Charlotte, North Carolina, and her boyfriend, Lucas Fowler, 23, of Sydney, Australia.
