OTTAWA — Canadian police hunted for two suspects in a stabbing spree that killed 10 people and wounded at least 15 others mostly in a sparsely populated indigenous community early Sunday (Aug 4), with the pair of suspects spotted hundreds of kilometers away.
The stabbings across 13 crime scenes were among the deadliest mass killings in modern Canadian history and certain to reverberate throughout the country, which is unaccustomed to bouts of mass violence more commonly seen in the United States.
The two were seen traveling in a black Nissan Rogue and spotted in the city of Regina, about 320 km south of the attacks in the James Smith Cree Nation and the village of Weldon, police said. James Smith Cree Nation is indigenous community with a population of about 3,400 people largely engaged in farming, hunting and fishing. Weldon is a village of some 200 people.
Police bulletins urged people to report any suspicious people and to take precautions including sheltering in place, while warning against picking up hitchhikers or approaching suspicious people. However, Ms Blackmore said it was unknown where the suspects might be headed or if they had changed vehicles.
