SURREY, B.C. — The father of an Australian man who was gunned down with his girlfriend while travelling on a remote British Columbia highway says the deaths are a tragic end to a love story between the inseparable couple.
Chief Insp. Stephen Fowler of the New South Wales Police Force says he spoke with his globe-trotting son Lucas Fowler before he and his American girlfriend Chynna Deese left on a road trip from northern B.C.
Fowler says nothing in his job as a police officer had prepared him for the devastating news he received about his son’s shooting death at the side of the Alaska Highway, where the couple’s bodies were found a week ago.
RCMP have released a composite sketch of a bearded man a witness saw speaking with the pair, who were driving a 1986 blue Chevrolet van.
