(PERTH, ON) - As the investigation into a suspicious death in Perth continues, police are seeking the public’s assistance to locate the accused, who are wanted for second degree murder and may be in British Columbia.
On Sunday, April 12, 2026, at approximately 3:15 pm, officers from the Lanark County Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) responded to Last Duel Park, where one person was located with life-threatening injuries. The individual, identified as 34-year-old Christo ALLISON RICHARDS of Ottawa, was transported to a trauma centre and later pronounced deceased.
As a result of the ongoing investigation, arrest warrants have been issued for Joseph MADORE, 34 years old of Ottawa, and Brayton KENNEDY, 28 years old of Ottawa. Both are charged with second degree murder, contrary to section 235(1) of the Criminal Code. If seen, do not approach.

Investigators believe Madore is currently in British Columbia, with known associations in the Richmond, Abbotsford, Chilliwack and Terrace areas. Kennedy may be travelling with him or may still be in the Ottawa area.
