Canada shooting: Four killed in Saskatchewan school; suspect arrested
Police arrested a suspect in a shooting that left four people dead in a small town in northern Saskatchewan, Canadian authorities said. A call came in Friday afternoon about a shooting at a school in La Loche, said Maureen Levy, chief superintendent of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Officers went to the La Loche Community School, arrested a suspect and seized his weapon, he said. In addition to the school, police are investigating a shooting at a residence in the town of about 2,600 people, Levy said. "The country's heart is breaking," Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said after the shooting. 'Run, bro, run!'

"Run, bro, run!" his friends said as they scuttled past him. "There's a shotgun! There's a shotgun! They were just yelling to me. And then I was hearing those shots, too. So of course I started running." School coordinator Norma Janvier told the Star Phoenix she was in her office when she heard shots. "I didn't know what was going on," she said. "I thought the kids were just playing around or something, like a locker slamming and stuff." She said another teacher stopped her from leaving the office so she waited until someone said it was safe. "All I heard was cops running around in the school," she said.
