While doing some housekeeping on my PC I found something I’d forgotten about:
A man has come forward with bombshell claims two Canadian teen murder suspects legally purchased a hunting rifle from a local gun store before setting off on their road trip to hell.
Now it has emerged the teens may have bought at least one of their weapons over the counter at a gun shop in their home town of Port Alberni — days before the killing spree began.
A local resident has told the Alberni Valley News he was on his way home when he called in at the local gun shop to find the teens in deep consultation with an employee.
“I watched as the clerk shared his expertise and advised on the best cartridges to use, matched
A hunting rifle to their budgets and made the sale,” he told the paper.
He did not specify the date but said it was before Schmegelsky and McLeod left town.
The man, who was not named, said he had shared the information with the RCMP.
New witness in teen murder spree case
Two firearms were found beside their bodies.
I don’t think it's unreasonable to assume that Kam already owned a hunting rifle and probably had the necessary hunter education certification. If murder and/or suicide was on their minds, he’d hardly worry about giving one illegally to BS.
