Canadian police said they were searching for 2 men whose burning car was discovered on Friday about 30 miles south of Dease Lake. During that investigation, they found an unidentified body a little over a mile from the car.
Royal Canadian Mounted Police Sgt. Janelle Shoihet said the cases could be linked.
The two were travelling to Whitehorse in the Yukon to look for work and had not been in contact with their families for the past few days, police said. There is no cellphone coverage in many parts of the region. Police said it was not clear why they returned to British Columbia and were driving south.
Dease Lake is about 300 miles from where 23-year-old Australian Lucas Fowler and his 24-year-old American girlfriend Chynna Deese were found shot dead along the Alaska Highway near Liard Hot Springs. "I may be an experienced police officer but today I'm standing here as the father of the murder victim," Fowler's father, Stephen said at a news conference in Surrey, British Columbia.
British Deese said the couple was on a trip to visit Canadian national parks when they were killed. He said the family believes they must have had engine trouble in their van.
