A pair of men found dead in a remote location near Naramata on May 10 have been identified.
According to the RCMP, the apparent homicide victims are brothers from Kamloops, 29-year-old Erick Fryer and 31-year-old Carlos Fryer.
“The unexpected deaths of both Erick and Carlos are being investigated by police as homicides,” said Supt. Sanjaya Wijayakoon.
“South Okanagan residents can expect to continue to see major crime resources in the region for the remainder of the week as investigators continue to advance the homicide investigation.”
Wijayakoon added that the RCMP is committed to determining what led to the brothers’ deaths and identifying who is responsible.
At this point, this is believed to be an isolated incident and not a random act, but police have not uncovered any evidence to suggest these homicides are connected to the Lower Mainland gang conflict.
However, major crime investigators are open to all possibilities in this homicide case and are renewing their call for anyone with information to come forward.
If you do have information that could help investigators, you’re urged to contact the major crime information tip line at 1-877-987-8477.
