The information given to us said at the stopover in Brandon, an Asian Guy had been hitting on a girl that Tim knew on the bus and that Tim told him to "lay off".

The Winnipeg Free Press suggests Vince Li, spent nearly an hour chatting up the victim's female co-worker during their ride through western Manitoba.

The pair seemed friendly but as the bus resumed its ill-fated journey towards Winnipeg, Li suddenly moved to the back of the bus and sat down beside McLean, who was listening to his headphones and apparently asleep.
