A search is underway for 2 men believed to be behind a series of stabbings that has left 10 people dead and at least 15 others wounded in 13 locations across the western Canadian province of Saskatchewan. Police started receiving violence reports at 5.40am on Sunday (local time) in the small Indigenous James Smith Cree Nation community, where most of the attacks occurred, followed by the nearby village of Weldon. They say some of the victims were likely targeted, and others were attacked randomly – and the motive behind the violence is still unclear. The suspects are 31yo Damien Sanderson and 30yo Myles Sanderson, who were last seen driving a stolen car 320km south of the first attacks, and police have issued alerts in the neighbouring provinces of Alberta and Manitoba.
