(CNN)At least 10 people have died and 15 others were hurt in what Canadian authorities are calling a mass stabbing, Assistant Commissioner Rhonda Blackmore with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police said in a news conference Sunday.

 

Authorities say there are 13 crime scenes where victims were found across Saskatchewan in western Canada. Blackmore said it appears some of the victims were targeted and some were random.

"It is certainly a very significant event if not the largest we've seen in the last number of years," Blackmore said.

YIKES! I'm in the alert area. Althought it's huge. About 6x the size of Germany. Took place on a small isolated First Nation reserve that is known for drugs and violence. Guy was charged with 2 first degree murders and an attempted murder shootings there a year ago. That's similar to war zone south Chicago numbers.  The Mounties will be flooding in from all over the country so hopefully they're not on the loose for long.

One of the accused brothers has been found dead on the reserve here the killings took place.  The Mounties think that the other brother who is still on the run is likely injured.
