EMS also attended to the call and pronounced the 53 year-old male, Lionel Gray Schaeffer, deceased at the scene. Schaeffer’s death was later deemed a homicide by investigators.

The accused male was a youth at the time of the offence, and therefore cannot be identified under the Youth Criminal Justice act.

The 18-year-old was arrested on Sept. 29, 2023. He will appear in Provincial Youth Court on Oct 2.
