RCMP have been searching for him and Marissa Shephard since both were named as persons of interest in Wylie'sdeath in mid-December.

The Petitcodiac resident says she was getting ready to leave her home when she saw a black car speed by and then a police car. Both vehicles stopped not far from her home and Huckins thought they had caught a speeder.

Huckins says the doors on the black car opened quickly and the three people tried to run. That's when she heard the police officer yell.

"All of a sudden I heard 'freeze' right loud and then I looked over and I could see the police officer with his gun out pointing. Two people were in the ditch laying face down and one was in the middle of the road, facedown on the road," said Huckins.

"I could hear the officer say, 'keep your head down, keep your head down.'"

Officers handcuffed and put all three people into the police cars, Huckins said.
