Const. Rob Carver told Global News there was some level of premeditation involved in the incident, which is supported by the seriousness of the charges.
“There was some interaction between the deceased and the accused prior to the connection at this parking lot,” he said.
“I can also tell you that the two accused were known to each other. This was not a random event.”
