Saskatchewan police hunt suspects as stabbing attacks kill 10 (NBC News)

Police are on the hunt for two suspects after ten people were killed and 15 others hospitalized in a series of stabbings in Canada's Saskatchewan province.

By 7:12 a.m., police had the names of two suspects, but it was not clear what led them to believe Damian Sanderson and Myles Sanderson could be the attackers. The RMCP believes a sighting in Saskatchewan's capital, Regina, is legitimate. A dangerous persons alert was in effect for Saskatchewan and the neighboring provinces of Alberta and Manitoba. The report was fielded around "lunchtime," a police official said at the news conference. "We believe some of the victims have been targeted by the suspects, and others have been attacked randomly," she said at a news conference Sunday afternoon. Rhonda Blackmore, the commanding officer of the Saskatchewan Royal Canadian Mounted Police, said it was one of the worst mass killings in the province's history, if not the worst.
