The names of two high school students found dead in a car in Abbotsford, B.C., have been released by police.

They are Joseph Randay, 18, and Dilsher Singh Gill, 17, both of Abbotsford.

Police believe their deaths may be linked to an incident at Bateman Park in Abbotsford on Thursday evening. There are reports the two got into an argument with a group of young men and were abducted at gunpoint.

Investigators said Saturday they are still talking to witnesses and trying to figure out exactly what happened at the park. They said neither teen was known to police or had any ties to drugs or gangs.

"I can tell you it is certainly perplexing how two young men — just weeks away from graduation — ended up in this fate. It's a very tragic case," said Cpl. Dale Carr of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Unit.

"We're going through all our steps to try and get to the bottom of it."

Autopsies to determine the cause of death are expected be conducted on Monday at the earliest.

People close to the teens posted their condolences and regrets on the social networking website Facebook.

One of the posts said a candlelight vigil had been planned for Saturday night at Chief Dan George Middle School in Abbotsford.

"You will both be missed greatly," said one commenter on the Facebook wall.

"Words cannot express the sadness that I feel," said another.
