B.C. - RCMP say two men have been charged in the double murder of two brothers in British Columbia's Okanagan region.

The bodies of Erick and Carlos Fryer were found in a remote location near the town of Naramata.

Mounties say Anthony Graham and Wayne Cudmore face first-degree murder charges in connection with the deaths.

Police say the deaths are believed to be linked to drug and gang activities across northern B.C. and the Lower Mainland.

While Cudmore has been arrested, Mounties say Graham has not been found and should be considered armed and dangerous.

Supt. Sanjaya Wijayakoon says he hopes Graham turns himself in to police.
