Portage RCMP have arrested and charged two women in connection with the death of 27-year-old Gerhard Reimer-Wiebe, whose remains were found in Portage on June 24.
Officers say 26-year-old Bobbi Lynn Hall, and 24-year-old Chelsea O’Hanley, both from Winnipeg, face several charges including 1st-degree murder, forcible confinement, and indignity to a dead human body.
Two men, aged 25 and 29, were previously arrested back in late July, and also face the same charges.
RCMP believe, based on the investigation, that Gerhard was killed on Alfred Street in Winnipeg and transported to Portage la Prairie by the four suspects
The excavation and removal of what remains of the residence on Alfred Street, which began on July 21, has ended and the recovered debris continues to be examined by Forensic specialists at an off-site warehouse. Evidence has already been recovered from the debris and investigators anticipate that additional evidence will be located as the work progresses.
