At least ten people have been killed and another fifteen injured in a deadly stabbing rampage in Canada's central Saskatchewan province, police say.
The victims were found in 13 locations in the James Smith Cree Nation and nearby village of Weldon, reports BBC.
Two suspects named as Damien Sanderson and Myles Sanderson are on the run and considered armed and dangerous.
Residents of the area have been told to shelter in place, as a massive manhunt continues across a huge geographical area.
Saskatchewan Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) tweeted, "Do not leave a secure location. Use caution allowing others into your residence."
Checkpoints have been set up, with police checking travellers' identification, and drivers have been urged not to pick up hitchhikers.
A state of emergency has been declared in the James Smith Cree Nation - an indigenous community with about 2,000 residents north-east of Weldon, where about 200 people live.
It is one of the deadliest acts of mass violence Canada has ever seen.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau described the attack on Twitter as "horrific and heartbreaking".
"I am shocked and devastated by the horrific attacks today," he said in a separate statement. "Those responsible for today's abhorrent attacks must be fully brought to justice."
At a news briefing on Sunday evening, police said there could be more injured people than the 15 they already knew about, who had taken themselves to hospital.
