RCMP are releasing new information in connection with a double homicide in Dieppe.
The bodies of 78-year-old Bernard Saulnier and 74-year-old Rose-Marie Saulnier were found in their home on Amirault Street on September 7, 2019.
RCMP say they have identified several vehicles of interest. One is a silver 2013 Hyundai Sonata observed in Dieppe near the crime scene the same day as the couple were found.
Police have obtained video footage that shows the car at the intersection of Acadie Avenue and Champlain Street.
It was recovered a few weeks later and it was determined the car had been reported stolen from the Fredericton area.
RCMP have reason to believe this car was involved in the homicides.

“While we can’t get into specifics to protect the ongoing investigation, we have reason to believe this car was involved in the homicides of the Saulniers,” says RCMP Corporal Hans Ouellette. “We are looking for any information as to who was using this vehicle in September 2019. If you have video footage from the area from this time – if you know who was driving the car – we need you to contact police or Crime Stoppers.”
Police are continuing to actively work on investigational leads, including information that has been brought forward through tips from the public.
