Bryer Schmegelsky, 18, and his friend Kam McLeod, 19, are still at large as RCMP in Manitoba have begun a door-to-door campaign in Gillam, MB trying to find them. Police now believe they may have left the area.
The young men were charged on July 25 with second degree murder in the death of University of British Columbia professor Leonard Dyck of Vancouver. Dyck乌鸦传媒檚 body was discovered in a rest area along Highway 37 outside of Dease Lake, B.C., a couple of kilometres away from where Schmegelsky乌鸦传媒檚 and McLeod乌鸦传媒檚 camper truck was found burning.
The pair were listed as missing on July 21 by RCMP, then considered suspects by July 23 in Dyck乌鸦传媒檚 death as well as the deaths of two international tourists near Liard Hot Springs. Lucas Fowler and Chynna Deese were discovered shot to death on the side of the road near their van on July 15.
Neither McLeod nor Schmegelsky have been charged in Fowler or Deese乌鸦传媒檚 deaths.

His mother, Deborah Sweeney, told Star Vancouver that she hopes her son sees this message.

McLeod乌鸦传媒檚 father released a statement to the media earlier in the week saying the family felt like prisoners in their home due to the international media attention.
