Canadian police find items belonging to murder suspects

Canadian police have found several items on a riverbank that are linked to the teenagers suspected of killing a North Carolina woman and her Australian boyfriend as well as another man.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police said in a release Tuesday the items were found along the Nelson River in Manitoba approximately 9 kilometers (6 miles) from where they left a burnt-out vehicle on July 22. Police searched the river near Gillam, Manitoba over the weekend after a damaged aluminum boat was discovered there Friday.

Police didn’t say what the new items were.

Nineteen-year-old Kam McLeod and 18-year-old Bryan Schmegelsky have been charged with second-degree murder in the death of Leonard Dyck and are suspects in the fatal shootings of Australian Lucas Fowler and Chynna Deese of Charlotte, North Carolina.
