A 17-year-old male youth and 18-year-old man have both been charged with first degree murder in the shooting death of Glenn Francis Oakley, 70. The pair also faces charges of robbery with a firearm, possession of stolen property, fraudulent use of a credit card and possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose.
The third person charged is an 18-year-old Halifax man who was arrested Tuesday afternoon. He’s been charged with accessory after the fact and possession of stolen property.
