MONCTON, N.B. - The RCMP in eastern New Brunswick have issued an emergency alert warning the public about two armed men with "dangerous intent" driving in a pickup truck.

An Alert Ready message issued at 7:30 a.m. local time said the men were believed to be in the Berry Mills area west of Moncton, driving in a black, 2018 Dodge Ram 2500 with no licence plate.

But the Mounties later issued a statement saying the suspects may be travelling in an older, light-coloured Ford F-150 pickup.

The Mounties initially said the suspects could be headed toward Edmundston in northwestern New Brunswick, but the updated statement refers to them heading westbound from Moncton.

The RCMP have identified one of the suspects as 50-year-old L茅o Carrier, but the other man was not named.

Carrier is described as 5-foot-10, 170 pounds with grey hair, hazel eyes and tattoos of a skull, devil, cross and a storm on his chest.聽

The Mounties say the two men should not be approached, and they are urging anyone who spots them to call 911.
