The New Brunswick RCMP’s Major Crime Unit (MCU) is releasing the names of the victims in connection with an ongoing double homicide investigation in Chipman, N.B.

On November 25, 2024, at approximately 8 a.m., members of the Chipman RCMP detachment responded to a report of a vehicle on fire with two individuals inside, off Midland Road in Chipman. 

The victims have since been positively identified as 47-year-old Robert Waugh and 23-year-old Victoria King, both of the Fredericton N.B area.  

Their bodies were located inside a white Chevrolet Equinox that had been consumed by fire. Early in the investigation, their deaths were determined to be homicides.
