The suspected shooter in the deadly incident at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School has been found dead with what police say appears to be a “self-inflicted injury”.

Another victim died while being transported to hospital.
Two people with life-threatening injuries were airlifted for treatment, while around 25 others with non-life-threatening injuries are being cared for at a local medical centre.
Police also discovered two additional bodies at a nearby residence believed to be connected to the incident, and said searches of other properties are ongoing.
“Officers are conducting further searches of additional homes and properties to determine whether anyone else may be injured or otherwise linked to today’s events,” police said in a statement.
