Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) have issued arrest warrants for two wanted men accused of murdering another man found in a park in Perth earlier this month.
Police said in a release Tuesday that 34-year-old Joseph Madore and 28-year-old Brayton Kennedy, both of Ottawa, are charged with second-degree murder but remain at large.
The OPP issued the warrants as a result of their ongoing investigation into the death of 34-year-old Christo Allison Richards from Ottawa. Richards was found with life-threatening injuries in Perth’s Last Duel Park on April 11. He was pronounced dead at the hospital.
Police said they believe the death was a targeted incident.
They are asking members of the public to get in touch with information about the whereabouts of Madore and Kennedy but cautioning against approaching the pair.
