Canada-wide arrest warrant issued for fourth suspect in Newfoundland murder

Police in Newfoundland have named a fourth suspect in the abduction and murder of Steven Miller, and say he took the ferry to Nova Scotia on the weekend.

Investigators say a Canada-wide arrest warrant has been issued for 23-year-old Chesley John Lucas of Paradise on charges of first-degree murder, forcible confinement, robbery and arson.

Police say Lucas, who also goes by CJ or Chesley Clarke, is considered armed and dangerous and is described as five foot seven inches tall with brown hair and hazel eyes.

The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary said Lucas travelled to North Sydney, N.S., by ferry Saturday afternoon.

He was believed to be travelling with Brady Myler, 21, who was himself wanted in relation to weapons offences unrelated to the Miller homicide.

Myler turned himself into police in Halifax Monday, said Const. Geoffrey Higdon.

Thirty-five-year-old Paul Connolly, 25-year-old Calvin Kenny and 19-year-old Kyle Morgan have already been charged with first-degree murder, forcible confinement, robbery and arson in connection with Miller’s death.

Miller’s body was discovered in a driveway in Conception Bay South on July 30.

Police say hours earlier, the 25-year-old man had been abducted from his home by armed and masked intruders just a few kilometres from where his body was found.
