“We don’t know where his mindset is at or what behaviour he might exhibit at this point in time, so it’s really important that people remain vigilant.”
Following the attacks on Sunday, police said they received a “credible” tip that Myles Sanderson was in Regina.
“It was corroborated with other pieces of information that we have, so that’s how we determined that we believed it to be credible,” Blackmore told Global News. She added that does not mean the suspect was still in that same location as of Tuesday.“We can’t say with any certainty that he is still in the City of Regina, he may be in other locations.”
On Tuesday, police officers surrounded a house on the James Smith Cree Nation after receiving a tip that Sanderson may have been spotted there. However, they did not see any sign of him and later left.Saskatchewan stabbing suspect’s parole records reveal long history of violence Since the stabbings took place, several emergency alerts have been issued in Saskatchewan as well as in Alberta and Manitoba. With people in the Prairies already on high alert, Blackmore said it is important for the public to continue to help and for people to remain vigilant as the investigation and search continue.“We can’t say with certainty where he is right now, and as a result, we need people to remain on high alert until we can take this individual into custody,” she said.
While noting that the public may be tired of hearing emergency alerts after several sounded out across the Prairies over the long weekend, Blackmore reiterated the need to take the warnings seriously.© 2022 Global News, a division of Corus Entertainment Inc.
