Their bodies were later escorted to the Gjetsco Funeral Home Mortuary for storage, pending post-mortem examinations. Both vehicles were lodged at the Mackenzie Police Station for examination. CCTV footage from the area will be reviewed to assist the investigation while the driver of the motor car remains in police custody as investigations continue.
