"A manhunt was underway in western Canada on Sunday night as police searched frantically for two men suspected in a series of stabbings that have killed 10 people and wounded at least 15 others.
The bulk of the attacks targeted residents of James Smith Cree Nation, an Indigenous community of 3,400, with other injuries reported in the neighbouring village of Weldon, north-east of Saskatoon.
Rhonda Blackmore, the assistant commissioner of the Royal Canadian Mounted police (RCMP) in Saskatchewan, told reporters on Sunday evening that police believed some of the victims were targeted and others were attacked randomly.
“It’s horrific what has occurred in our province today,” she said.
Police identified Damien and Myles Sanderson as the two suspects in the killings. Damien is is 31 years old, five feet seven inches (170cm) tall, weighing 155 pounds (70kg) with black hair and brown eyes.
Blackmore said the relationship between the suspects was unclear. She said there was no motive yet – but the men were presumed to be armed and dangerous.
Police began receiving reports early on Sunday morning from James Smith Cree Nation of a stabbing in the community. Within two hours, a dangerous persons alert was sent to residents in the area, asking them to shelter in place.
More alerts were sent as the scope of the attack, spread over at least 13 sites, became clearer."
