The Manitoba RCMP say items found along the Nelson River shoreline have been linked to the alleged northern B.C. murderers.
The manhunt for Kam Mcleod, 19, and Bryer Schmegelsky, 18, has been underway for multiple weeks.
The pair have been charged with second-degree murder in the death of University of British Columbia professor Leonard Dyck and are suspected in the fatal shootings of Australian Lucas Fowler and his American girlfriend Chynna Deese.
Several items were found along the shoreline on Aug. 3 along with a damaged boat, prompting an underwater search of the river in Gillam, Manitoba.
No additional items were found and the RCMP Underwater Team finished their search on Monday.
RCMP have not provided any further information about what the found items are.
Police announced last week they would be scaling down the search for the two teenagers as there have been no confirmed sightings of the pair in over a week.
