10 dead after stabbing spree in Canada

At least 10 people have been killed and at least 15 people injured after two men went on a stabbing spree in Saskatchewan in Canada.

The two suspects, named as Damien Sanderson and Myles Sanderson, are currently on the run and considered armed and dangerous.

Victims were found in 13 locations in the remote indigenous community James Smith Cree Nation and nearby Weldon.

Police have urged residents to be extremely vigilant as they conduct a search across one of Canada's largest and most remote regions.

A dangerous person alert has been sent to all mobile phones across the provinces of Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Alberta. The region is almost half the size of Europe.

A state of emergency has been declared in the James Smith Cree Nation. Checkpoints have been set up and drivers have been warned not to pick up hitchhikers.

Rhonda Blackmore, Commanding Officer for Saskatchewan RCMP said that some people may have been targeted, while others are believed to have been "attacked randomly".

The motive for the attack is currently unknown.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said: "I am shocked and devastated by the horrific attacks today."

"Those responsible for today's abhorrent attacks must be fully brought to justice."
