The Mounties tweeted late in the afternoon that they believe Schmegelsky and McLeod were recently in the area of Gillam, a town of 1,200 people in northern Manitoba. They also said investigators believe they were driving a grey Toyota RAV4 SUV.

“We’re asking the public, if you spot Bryer or Kam, consider them dangerous. Do not approach, take no action and call immediately 911,” Sgt. Janelle Shoihet said at a news conference on Tuesday. Police say the pair is likely to continue driving though police do not know their destination.

However, they may have ditched that car and be travelling in a different one or on foot.
