Family of M.L. shooting victim still waiting on many answers
After a two-hour meeting with RCMP last night about the investigation surrounding 17-year-old Kegan McCallum’s shooting death, the family still has many questions about what happened.
On Monday, Nov. 13, the youth was shot at a home on Meadow Lake’s west side, and died of his wounds later in hospital.
The family initially found out the news from passersby that morning, and were told by RCMP later that overall public safety was the top priority at the time as the shooter was at large, and believed to be armed and dangerous. To date, it’s still unclear whether or not the male was apprehended.
McCallum’s aunt Amber Barthel said the family members are devastated and reeling from the loss of Keegan, but feeling a bit more supported by RCMP after the initial meeting.
