Canadian police arrest 2nd suspect in stabbing rampage
ROSTHERN, Saskatchewan — The final suspect in a stabbing rampage that killed 10 people in and around a Canadian Indigenous reserve died after being arrested by police Wednesday following a three-day manhunt, authorities said. One official said he died of self-inflicted injuries.
But an official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, earlier said Sanderson died of self-inflicted injuries, without giving any further details. Some family members of the victims arrived at the scene Wednesday, including Brian Burns, whose wife and son were killed.The stabbing rampage raised questions of why Myles Sanderson — an ex-con with 59 convictions and a long history of shocking violence — was out on the streets in the first place.
“I want to know the reasons behind the decision" to release him, Mendicino said. “I'm extremely concerned with what occurred here. A community has been left reeling.
Court documents said Sanderson attacked his in-laws Earl Burns and Joyce Burns in 2015, knifing Earl Burns repeatedly and wounding Joyce Burns. He later pleaded guilty to assault and threatening Earl Burns’ life.
