Police find body of one of two suspects in Canada stabbing News

Police have found the body of one of the two suspects in the Canadian stabbings. It’s about the body of Damien Sanderson. The second suspect, his brother Myles, may have been injured. The two were charged with murder earlier in the day. Meanwhile, the search for Myles Sanderson continues. Deputy Commissioner Rhonda Blackmore of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police announced this at a press conference.

Canadian police believe that Myles Sanderson is in Regina, the capital of the province of Saskatchewan. Police say they have reason to believe that Myles Sanderson may have been injured. He is still considered “armed and dangerous”.

The body of Damien Sanderson, 31, was found outside, near a home in James Smith Cree Nation. His body showed injuries that were not inflicted by himself. Blackmore said the deceased Damien Sanderson was “possibly” murdered by his 30-year-old brother.

Mass murder

With the death of Damien Sanderson and the possible injury of his brother, the total number of victims of the stabbing that happened on Sunday in rural villages in the province of Saskatchewan stands at 11 dead and 19 injured, according to Blackmore. Several of the injured are still in critical condition. It is one of the largest mass murders in the country’s recent history. Police say they have no information about possible attacks on children or babies in Saskatchewan.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau expressed his condolences to the victims and relatives on Tuesday evening. “There is no place for such violence in our society,” he said. Trudeau has since spoken to James Smith Cree Nation executives and Saskatchewan Prime Minister Scott Moe and pledged support from the government.

Police actively looking for last suspect

The Canadian National Police (RCMP) is searching “with maximum resources” and “actively” for the latest suspect, and urges the public to look out for a black SUV with a license plate from the province of Alberta.

The police released the names of the suspects and their photos and description yesterday. Damien (31) and Myles Sanderson (30) would have fled in a black Nissan Rogue. The men are suspected of stabbing to death ten people in an indigenous community in James Smith Cree Nation and the nearby town of Weldon, in the province of Saskatchewan.

The pair were charged with murder, attempted murder and burglary on Monday evening (Belgian time). More charges are expected to follow.

Police Alert

The deadly stabbings happened in quick succession on Sunday in rural villages in Canada. Police began getting calls about stabbings around 5:40 a.m. She has issued a “dangerous person” warning for the province of Saskatchewan, where the stabbings took place, and neighboring provinces of Alberta and Manitoba.

According to a police warning issued shortly after noon, the pair may be in Regina, the capital of the province of Saskatchewan. A large police force had already been mobilized there because of a Canadian football match at the Mosaic Stadium near the center of the city. However, it was unclear in which direction the suspects had fled and whether they had switched vehicles in the meantime.

Random Victims

Police say some of the victims appeared to have been targeted in the attacks, while others were allegedly chosen at random. “No one in this town will ever sleep again,” said Ruby Works, a Weldon resident and close relative of one of the victims. “They’re going to be terrified to open the door.”

One of the ten victims is 77-year-old Wes Peterson, Canadian news channel APTN reports. The widower was stabbed at his home in Weldon, while his adult grandson was in the basement at the time. Divorced mother Lana Head and her boyfriend also did not survive the attack, Head’s ex confirms to APTN. Head leaves behind two daughters. Hours before the stabbing, she posted on Facebook that she had so many “good memories” to “cherish”.

“It’s sick how prison, drugs and alcohol can destroy many lives,” said Head’s ex-husband Brett Burns. Friends and family were shocked by her death. “Not the way I wish she had left this world,” said Melodie Whitecap, a childhood friend.

Motive still unclear

Police say they are investigating 13 crime scenes. The motive of the two is still unclear. The head of the Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations suggested in a statement that the stabbing could be drug-related. “This is the destruction we face as harmful illegal drugs invade our community,” said Federation chief Bobby Cameron.
