Canadian teen murder suspects believed spotted 'scavenging for food'

The fugitive Canadian teenagers who are wanted over the murders of three people may have been spotted scavenging for food by an Indigenous patrol, the Bear Clan, which is helping to protect the remote community of York Landing.

Key points:

• The RCMP have been unable to confirm the two men seen scavenging for food were the wanted teens
• The men fled towards trees after being spotted by members of the Bear Clan
• The Bear Clan is a group that protects Canadian Indigenous communities which are outside the scope of police forces

Kam McLeod, 19, and Bryer Schmegelsky, 18, who are suspects in the murders of Australian Lucas Fowler and his American girlfriend Chynna Deese, and have been charged with the shooting murder of 64-year-old Leonard Dyck, are being called "Canada's most wanted men" by local media.

Bear Clan founder James Favel told the ABC a patrol spotted a suspicious pair of men at a garbage dump, on the outskirts of the of the community.

"While doing perimeter checks on the First Nation [community] they came across two men who seemed to be scavenging food out of the garbage dump," Mr Favel said.

"That struck them as odd of course, because everybody else is holed up in their residences, so they immediately reported to RCMP [Royal Canadian Mounted Police].

"Thankfully they were there very rapidly and the village went into lockdown completely.

"Now, they have a lot of resources on the ground there — helicopters in the sky, they've got at least one drone and they've got dogs — so they're out there looking.

"They [the pair] did notice that they'd been spotted by our guys so they bolted right away.

"They went across the road towards the lagoon and then disappeared into the tree line."

York Landing is 200 kilometres away from the small town of Gillam, Manitoba, which had been the focus of police search operations.

The RCMP has urged people in the remote northern town in British Colombia to remain inside and lock their doors.

The Mounties, as they are known, have been unable to substantiate the tip from the Bear Clan, saying in a Tweet on Tuesday morning (AEST) they would continue to devote resources to the York Landing and Gillam areas.

"Our officers on the ground have not made contact with the individuals, and so we are not yet in a position to confirm that these are the wanted suspects," a police spokesperson said.

Bear Clan Patrol not part of official search

Mr Favel said the Bear Clan's possible sighting of the wanted men was purely coincidental.

The Bear Clan is a group tasked with protecting remote Indigenous communities who are outside the scope of the police forces.

"These First Nations are without an RCMP presence so they are unpoliced, unprotected," Mr Favel said.

"So they asked us to go up there and provide a sense of security and wellbeing for the community.

"We're not part of the search, it was just kind of a coincidence that they happened to be on scene and spot them."

Mr Favel said he doubted the fugitives would get far in a very harsh landscape.

"This is very rough terrain and it would be very hard for them to make any real distance, so I think [the police] won't let up until they catch them, if it is indeed them," he said.

"Everybody is kind of on edge, there's a huge police presence, they're going door to door, so everybody's freaked out a little bit.

"People have been sheltering in place, their lives have come to a halt during this process, and I just hope it comes to a peaceful resolution very shortly, so people can get back to their regular lives."

Mr Fowler's father, NSW Police Chief Inspector Stephen Fowler, made an emotional plea at a press conference last week in Canada for any information.
