Suspects on the run after deadly Canada stabbing rampage

Ottawa, Sept 5 (AFP/APP): Canadian police scoured Saskatchewan and neighboring provinces on Monday in a massive manhunt for two fugitives suspected of carrying out a stabbing spree that killed 10 people and wounded 15.

The killings in the James Smith Cree Nation Indigenous community and the town of Weldon in Saskatchewan are among the deadliest incidents of mass violence to ever hit the nation.

Evan Bray, police chief of provincial capital Regina, said that the two suspects may hiding out in the city — 300 kilometers (185 miles) from the site of the attack — after suspected sightings late Sunday.

They “are still at large, despite relentless efforts” to locate them, Bray said.
