FREDERICTON SHOOTING: Suspect identified, charged with 4 counts of murder
Fredericton police say Matthew Vincent Raymond has been charged with four counts of first-degree murder in the shooting deaths of two police officers and two civilians.
Police say the 48-year-old Fredericton man is accused of killing Bobbie Lee Wright, Donnie Robichaud, Const. Robb Costello and Const. Sara Burns in the Friday morning shooting.
They have not said whether he knew any of the deceased.
As of Saturday morning, the residential area where the incident took place remained cordoned off and a mobile police command post was on scene.
An officer said it was unclear how long the probe would take, and police have asked anyone who captured photos or video of the incident to come forward.
Robichaud was a loving parent who played bass and sang in a few local bands, according to his cousin, Sean Callahan.
Robichaud worked in autobody shops, enjoyed riding his Harley-Davidson and was the kind of man who was always there to lend a hand, Callahan said on Saturday morning.
“The guy was so likable, like I don’t think he had anybody that hated him, and Donnie, if he even hated you, he’d still give you the shirt off his back — he would help you out,” he said.
