Suspect in a weekend stabbing spree in Canada who was apprehended by police has died as a result of self-inflicted wounds, local media and officials say
Damien Sanderson and Myles Sanderson are accused of killing 10 people and wounding 18 in a string of attacks on Sunday.
Sanderson was located near the town of Rosthern at about 3:30 pm local time, a Royal Canadian Mounted Police statement said. The rampage raised questions on Wednesday about why the suspect — 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." Arcand rushed to the reserve the morning of the rampage. After that, he said, "I woke up in the middle of the night just screaming and yelling. What I saw that day I can’t get out of my head."
In 2017, he barged into his ex-girlfriend’s home, punched a hole in the door of a bathroom while his two children were hiding in a bathtub and threw a cement block at a vehicle parked outside, according to parole documents.
