A Canada-wide warrant has been issued for the arrest of a man and a woman charged with the first-degree murder of a Moncton man.
Marissa Shephard, 20, and Tyler Noel, 18, both of Moncton, are charged with first-degree murder and arson in connection with the death of 18-year-old Baylee Wylie on Dec. 17.
Sgt. André Pepin of Codiac Regional RCMP says it is unknown if Shephard and Noel are together, or if they’re in New Brunswick or outside of the province.
Sgt. Pepin says anyone helping the pair evade police can be charged with accessory after the fact to commit first-degree murder.
“The murder of Baylee Wylie was extremely violent,” said Sgt. Pepin “These two should be considered dangerous and not be approached.”
Shephard is described as a five-foot-five, 100 pound white woman with brown eyes and brown hair. She has a tattoo with the name Stephen on her neck and a tattoo of a heart on her chest.
Noel is described as a five-foot-six, 140 pound white man with a brown eyes, black hair, with facial hair and sideburns. He has tattoos on his right forearm with the words mom, dad and Mary, as well as a skull.
