Ten people including the shooter are dead after an assailant opened fire at a high school in western Canada on Tuesday (Feb 10) in one of the country’s deadliest mass casualty events in recent history.

A local journalist filming near Tumbler Ridge Secondary said he had spoken to a parent whose son was hiding in the school gym and was waiting to hear from his other child.

The incident brought to Canada the type of mass shooting more common in the neighbouring United States, and was carried out by a shooter described as female, police said.

Six people were found dead inside a high school in the town of Tumbler Ridge in British Columbia, two more people were found dead at a residence believed to be connected to the incident, and another person died on the way to hospital, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police said.
