Five People Dead At School Shooting In Canada

A suspect is in custody after five people were killed and two seriously injured in a school shooting at a remote village in the northern province of Saskatchewan, according to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. CBC News reports: “Obviously this is every parent’s worst nightmare,” Trudeau said Friday in a brief statement from Davos, Switzerland. A suspect is in custody, he said, and the situation was under control. Trudeau also thanked first responders who reacted “quickly and bravely” in what he called a “tragic and terrible day.” La Loche is a community of about 3,000.
