Mounties released details about what happened on the James Smith Cree Nation and in the nearby village of Weldon on Sept. 4, when 11 people were killed
After the brothers attacked a man in his home with scissors, Myles Sanderson and Damien Sanderson got into a fight in a vehicle. An injured Damien Sanderson fled the vehicle into the trees along the side of the road. His body would be located there the following day..Myles Sanderson continued to go to different homes in the community, attacking some people and killing others. Other people he ominously threatened, saying they were lucky to not be hurt as he stole some of their vehicles.
A handful of people from the community attended the presentation in Melfort, but victims and their families received the update on Wednesday.“The way the morning went there was so much confusion, there was so much turmoil,” Burns said. “Looking back on it, you couldn’t really tell where he was going to go or what he was going to do.”Advertisement 5Mounties said the update won’t affect two coroner’s inquests set for early next year.
Mounties have previously released some details about the deadly rampage on the First Nation about 170 kilometres northeast of Saskatoon. The province was on edge and police remained on the lookout for days, with sightings of Sanderson reported in Regina and back on the First Nation.
