Canadian police say at the very least 9 killed in British Columbia mass taking pictures involving a faculty

At least 9 people have been killed in a mass shooting involving a school in British Columbia Tuesday, Canadian police say.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police said that the 9 victims and the suspected shooter are dead after the shooting that took place across multiple locations in Tumbler Ridge.

Six people were found dead inside Tumbler Ridge Secondary School and another died when being taken to a hospital. Two more people were found dead in a nearby home, Canadian broadcaster CBC reported.

The suspected shooter was also found dead with “what appears to be a self‑inflicted injury” inside the school, police say.

Police said in a news release they received a report of an active shooter at the Tumbler Ridge school at around 1:20 p.m. MT Tuesday.

“The alert was officially cancelled at 5:45 p.m. as police do not believe there are any outstanding suspects or ongoing threat to the public,” RCMP said.

Aside from those who had died in the shooting, two more victims were airlifted to a hospital with “serious or life‑threatening injuries,” the police said.
