Fredericton, Aug 27 (IBNS): The man who has been charged in the Fredericton shooting, which killed four people, appeared before the court on Monday, media reports said.

Among the four deceased, two were police officers.

The officers were Const. Robb Costello (45) and Const. Sara Mae Burns (43). 

The families of the victims were among 70 people who gathered in the courtroom. However, they didn't speak to media.

Dickson adjourned the case till Sept 24.

The third person killed was Donnie Robichaud (42), a father of three.

Police also released the name of the fourth victim.

She has been identified as Bobbie Lee Wright. The fourth victim was 32 years of age.
