Saskatchewan RCMP have identified the victims in a homicide investigation as two men from Edmonton.

Bryton Lawrason, 29, and Seth Hildebrand, 20 were found dead on Monday night by Canora RCMP in an orange Dodge Journey along Tiny grid road near the Burgis Beach turn off.

An autopsy has been completed on both men and their families have been notified.

RCMP consider both deaths to be homicides and have not released cause of death as the information is part of the ongoing investigation.

“To be clear, this is not a homicide-suicide investigation,” RCMP said Thursday.
