In a Tuesday news release, police advised the public to call not to approach Marjanovic if they see him — he is considered “armed and dangerous” — and instead call 911.

Two men are already charged with first-degree murder in Peyawary’s death; Damir Kulic, 27, of Vancouver and Ahamed Althaaf Ismail, 29, of Edmonton.
