Ontario Police Say Murder Suspect May Be in British Columbia
Police say the suspects may be in British Columbia and New Brunswick as investigators seek tips after charges were upgraded from second-degree murder.
- On Thursday, the Ontario Provincial Police upgraded charges against Ottawa men Joseph Madore, 34, and Brayton Kennedy, 28, to first-degree murder in connection with a homicide. Both suspects remain at large.
- Officers responded to Last Duel Park in Perth on April 12 after finding victim Christo Allison Richards with life-threatening injuries. Richards was transported to a trauma centre, where he later died.
- Arrest warrants for Madore and Kennedy were first issued in June, and two other individuals were arrested in connection with the case. A 46-year-old from Perth was charged with conspiracy to commit murder, while 32-year-old Lyna Du of Ottawa was charged with accessory after the fact to murder.
- Police believe Madore is travelling through the backcountry in British Columbia, while Kennedy may be in New Brunswick. Investigators continue searching for both men across multiple provinces.
- People are warned not to approach the suspects if spotted and should call 911 immediately. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Lanark County Ontario Provincial Police or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
