Canada murder suspects could already be 1,800 miles from slayings, described as 'best friends' (tr)

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.

“We’re 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.

An earlier story was posted about the murder of a young couple (an American woman and an Australian man) in Canada.

A burning truck and the body of another man were discovered somewhere else.

And two teens were missing.

Now those two teens are the suspects.

Isn’t finding bad guys in the frozen wilderness the specialty of the Mounties? At least that’s what all the movies say.

I think Huskies find the bad guys and the mounties just follow.

Celine Dion was never hot. Wonderful vocalist, but with singularly unattractive facial features.

“Hot” may have been too strong a word.When she was young she had a rather attractive face...IMO. Today,of course,it's obvious either that God has been very unkind to her *or* her makeup artist and/or her plastic surgeon should be sued for millions.

She lost all that weight apparently in a mid-life quest to look like a supermodel, and the structure of her face was gone, splat.
Now she’s frightening, last time I saw a pic.

With our open borders, they could also be in the US.

3 deaths, sounds like a spree to me, sounds like these kids are weirded up, on drugs or satan’s music or something. Bizarre crime.
