'Unimaginable tragedy': Ten people including shooter dead in Canada school shooting

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police said more than 25 people are injured

RCMP said investigators had identified a female suspect following a shooting at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School.

Nine people have been killed and dozens injured after an assailant opened fire at a school in western Canada, in one of the deadliest mass shootings in the country’s history. The suspect was later found dead from what appeared to be a self-inflicted injury.

Police found six dead inside the high school in the remote town of Tumbler Ridge in British Columbia, with a further two bodies found at a residence believed to be connected to the incident. Another person died on the way to hospital, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) said.
