Manitoba RCMP say they believe they have found the bodies of two men wanted for killing three people in British Columbia.
Kam McLeod and Bryer Schmegelsky were on the run for several weeks before the search stalled in Gillam, Manitoba.
On Wednesday morning, they received reports of human remains near the shore of the Nelson River.
They later located two male bodies in dense bush near Gillam, about eight kilometres away from where a burnt-out vehicle belonging to the men was found July 22.
Police say items were found along the shoreline Friday which were directly linked to the suspects and enabled officers to narrow down their search.
The search is over. At 10am this morning, Manitoba RCMP officers located the bodies of two males, believed to be the BC suspects, near the shoreline of the Nelson River (approx 8km from the burnt vehicle). #rcmpmb pic.twitter.com/tZ7EBFsNDr
