Archer Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 Sunday, Jul 16, 2006 Two Saskatchewan Mounties die from wounds received in gun battle SASKATOON (CP) - The grievous head wounds received by two Saskatchewan Mounties in a gun battle last week proved too much to overcome, an RCMP commander said Sunday as he announced the deaths of constables Robin Cameron and Marc Bourdages. "Robin died at approximately 11 p.m. (Saturday) and Marc about two hours later," said Assistant Commissioner Darrell McFadyen."Both succumbed to severe head injuries. Despite all of the excellent care that was provided to them, they were unable to recover." Hits home when your brother is a Mountie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archer Posted July 18, 2006 Author Share Posted July 18, 2006 Tuesday, Jul 18, 2006 Suspect in killing of two Saskatchewan Mounties turns himself in REGINA (CP) - The intensive manhunt for the suspect in the slaying of two Saskatchewan Mounties ended Tuesday when Curtis Dagenais turned himself in to authorities. Regina RCMP held a news conference to say that Dagenais surrendered without incident to authorities in Spiritwood, the site of the fatal shooting. "There is a sense of relief," said Cpl. Brian Jones. "He came into the detachment on his own . . . We're just glad that he did." Dagenais is charged with two counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of constables Robin Cameron, 29, and Marc Bourdages, 26. They both died a week after suffering severe gunshot wounds to the head during a police pursuit stemming from an investigation into a domestic dispute. Dagenais is also charged with attempted murder. A third officer was shot at during the July 7 incident but was not injured. I hope they Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
