On March 5, police charged 24-year-old Matthew Campeau with second-degree murder, use of a firearm while committing an offence, unauthorized possession of a firearm and possession of a prohibited/restricted firearm with ammunition.
Campeau turned himself in to police in B.C. on March 1 after police asked to speak with him in connection with Gordon’s death.
The second-degree murder charge against Campeau was later upgraded to first-degree murder, police said Monday evening.
“Police are not looking for additional suspects in relation to this homicide,” the Edmonton Police Service said on Monday.
