WINNIPEG—The RCMP are scaling back the search for two British Columbia murder suspects in remote northern Manitoba.

Assistant Commissioner Jane MacLatchy said over the past week officers have searched more than 11,000 square kilometres of wilderness using the best technology available and have found no sign of Bryer Schmegelsky and Kam McLeod.
