Two young men who have spurred a nationwide manhunt in Canada after the killings of an American woman, her Australian boyfriend, and a third unidentified man are known as lifelong friends, according to the father of one of the now-suspects.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police made the shocking announcement during a news conference Tuesday that Kam McLeod, 19, and Bryer Schmegelsky, 18, from Port Alberni, British Columbia, are the main suspects in the slayings of 23-year-old Australian Lucas Fowler, and his American girlfriend Chynna Deese, 24, who were discovered shot to death on July 15 along the side of the Alaska Highway near Liard Hot Springs, British Columbia.
Were asking the public, if you spot Bryer or Kam, consider them dangerous, RCMP Sgt. Janelle Shoihet told reporters.
Shoihet said Tuesday that McLeod and Schmegelsky left British Columbia and have been traveling in northern Saskatchewan in a grey 2011 Toyota Rav 4. Authorities released surveillance photos of the two in Saskatchewan.
But later in the day, police said the duo may be further east in Manitoba after a reported sighting in the remote northern town of Gillam.
The possible spotting in the Gillam area is roughly 1,800 miles from the region where the killings took place in British Columbia. Officials have said the two young men may also have also changed their appearances and be driving another vehicle.
"We have reasons to believe they were recently in the Gillam area," RCMP Manitoba said on Twitter. "If you spot them - take no actions do not approach call 911 or your local police immediately."
Gilliam Mayor Dwayne Forman told CTV News the alert prompted many of the town's residents to stay indoors. "The streets are very quiet right now," he said Tuesday night.

I felt so bad for the dad of one of the boys when he was being interviewed. He’s certain his son will die — “go out in a blaze of glory”. You wonder if his parenting skills are an issue, or if the kid is simply a bad seed.
They look bad.
The eyes...
Yeah, the eyes...
