4 people now charged with murder in Minto man’s death

Two more people have been charged with first-degree murder in the death of a Minto man.

Brandon Donelan, 27, was reported missing to police on Jan. 30, 2022.

His body was found in a wooded area off a snowmobile trail in Chipman two months later.

Two men were arrested on Tuesday at Dorchester Penitentiary, where they are serving federal sentences on unrelated matters.

The men, aged 26 and 29, were both charged with first-degree murder during a court appearance on Wednesday.

The same charge was laid against a 40-year-old woman and a 33-year-old man back in June.

Police are asking anyone with information that might help with their investigation to call 1-888-506-7267 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

More details can be found on the New Brunswick RCMP’s website.
