[Asia Economy Reporter Bang Je-il] In southwestern Saskatchewan, Canada, where a horrific stabbing spree resulted in 11 deaths and 18 injuries, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) announced that the 'stabbing suspect' Miles Sanderson (30) died after a police chase. This occurred four days after the incident.

On the 7th (local time), according to foreign media including the BBC, the police stated that Miles Sanderson, the suspect in the stabbing murders, died by self-inflicted injury while fleeing from the police pursuit.

Earlier, to capture the suspect Miles Sanderson, the police conducted a large-scale search spanning three provinces: Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Alberta. After discovering Miles' vehicle, the police pursued his car.

The police rammed Sanderson's car to stop it and then arrested him.

During the escape from the police chase, Miles attempted self-harm. The police who arrested him found that he had sustained serious injuries. He was immediately transported to a hospital but died shortly thereafter.

The police stated, "The wounds on Sanderson's body appear to be self-inflicted."

Miles Sanderson, along with his brother Damian Sanderson (31), was wanted on charges of going around Indigenous communities in Saskatchewan on the 4th, carrying out a stabbing spree that killed 11 residents and injured 18. Damian was found dead the next day, on the 5th, in a bush near a house in the James Smith Cree Nation Indigenous community where the incident occurred.

At that time, the police mentioned that Damian, the accomplice, did not die from self-harm and that it was possible that his younger brother Miles had killed him.

With the deaths of both the perpetrator Damian and Miles Sanderson, the motive behind this crime remains unknown.

Meanwhile, this stabbing spree is considered one of the worst incidents in Canada, alongside the 2020 Nova Scotia shooting where a man dressed in a fake police uniform killed 22 people, and the 2017 Quebec City mosque shooting where six people lost their lives.
