The New Brunswick RCMP confirms that one person is dead following a home invasion in Berry Mills, N.B.
On February 6, 2025, at approximately 5:51 a.m., members of the Caledonia Region RCMP responded to a report of a home invasion at a residence on Isaiah Street, in Berry Mills.
Three individuals forcibly gained entry to the residence occupied by a man and a woman, both in their thirties. An altercation occurred, resulting in the fatality of an unidentified man. When police arrived at the scene, two suspects had already fled the scene in a black 2018 Dodge Ram 2500.
At approximately 7:30 a.m., an Alert Ready was issued in connection with the incident. Upon further investigation, a light-coloured Ford F150 is also believed to be involved with the home invasion. Police continue to search for the two pickup trucks, however, the individual originally named in the Alert Ready is no longer being considered as a suspect.
Police have reason to believe that this was a targeted incident, and that there is no longer a risk to the general public. The Alert Ready has since concluded.
"We are looking to speak with anyone who was travelling in the Berry Mills area during the early morning hours of February 6, 2025,” said Cpl. Hans Ouellette of the New Brunswick RCMP. "If you have dash-cam or other video footage from the area at the time of the incident, please call the police."
If you have information related to this investigation, or believe to see one of the trucks involved, please contact the New Brunswick RCMP at 911.
