CHARLOTTETOWN - Wet snow fell outside a church in Charlottetown today as mourners gathered for the funeral of a young man who was gunned down at the side of an Alberta highway.
Twenty-two-year-old Tanner Craswell was a promising young baseball player who was studying at Lethbridge College.
A funeral for his friend and teammate, 20-year-old Mitch MacLean, was held Thursday just outside Charlottetown in the community of Winsloe.
The men were headed to the airport to return home to Prince Edward Island for the holidays when they were shot by Derek Jensen before he turned the gun on himself.
Jensen's ex-girlfriend, Tabitha Stepple of Lethbridge, was killed in the shooting and Shayna Conway, also of P.E.I., remains in hospital recovering from serious gunshot wounds.
Police have said the shootings were motivated by Jensen's recent breakup with Stepple.
