BREAKING: Canadian police say at least 10 people are dead, including the suspect, after a shooting rampage in Nova Scotia. Find updates here:

Royal Canadian Mounted Police officers prepare to take a suspect into custody at a gas station in Enfield, Nova Scotia on Sunday April 19, 2020. Canadian police arrested a suspect in an active shooter investigation after earlier saying he may have been driving a vehicle resembling a police car and wearing a police uniform.

Wortman was arrested by the RCMP at a gas station in Enfield, just outside Halifax. Police later announced that he had died. Police have not provided a motive for the attack, but RCMP Chief Superintendent Chris Leather said many of the victims did not know the shooter. Leather said at point there was an exchange of gunfire between the suspect and police. There were half a dozen police vehicles at the scene of a gas station where the suspect was shot. Yellow police tape surrounded the gas pumps, and a large silver-colored SUV was being investigated.

Trudeau ignores it was a 12 HOUR shooting spree! WHERE WERE THE POLICE!!!? Canadians are only allowed to own hunting rifles ... No one could have defended themselves...

We are at 19 and counting as the area spans over 100 kilometres with at least 16 crime scenes

Thank You For Your Awareness and Communication. I am an international journalist wit many CNN //native DC colleagues and despise seeing them called “FAKE NEAS” and shut up

My deepest sympathy to all friends and families

See what I mean about taking everything with a grain of salt when it comes to the media. These guys are saying 10 other guys are saying 16 who the fuck knows

Any other time this would be the top story in Canada 24/7. Now, its barely being covered cdnpoli onpoli covid19Canada COVID19 NovaScotia NovaScotiaShooting

He really pretended to be a policeman :/

They have some of the world’s strictest gun laws. It’s not the gun 2A

It's strange a white male kills 16 people and it not a terrorist act because he did not had a motive. Had it been a brown/white muslim guy, he would have been declared a terrorist in blink of an eye. Hypocrites racist mediaterrror JustinTrudeau Sir would you agree?

I'm gutted. Beautiful Nova Scotia .... a thought for all the victims of this rampage, including RCMP Cst. Stevenson.

Please help my cousin Justin Zahl. His parents lived next door to the shooter. We can't get ahold of them. We are very worried that they are some of the victims.

The lockdown exposing their suppressed anger?

My family. My cousin. His wife and little girl. Three members. GONE. I'm broken. Please God take them in your arms and bless them.

This is how the obscene amount of gun violence in theUS has bled over into Canada. ALL roads from US gun violence lead straight back to the NRA. Gun violence in the US is like cancer spreading across the globe.

I wonder how Trudeau bitches about America this time.

Conservatives and Scheer don’t support meaningful gun control laws.

When those pesky canadians just don't get there maple syrup for one day gosh!

How can the suspect is DEAD now when the RCMP of Nova Scotia stated they had him in custody?

I want as many people as possible to see what this disgusting woman had to say about this brave and honourable lady that lost her life. I am disgusted Gloria Sihlis

Nova Scotia? Devastating 💔

Was the shooter a JustinTrudeau bro?

I thought Canadians were keeping 'Mericans out of their country?

It’s hatred in heart

sheikhimaan Jesus Christ Have Mercy On Everyone. In These Critical Times We Get To Hear Such News.

13 now confirmed dead not including the shooter. One of the worst mass murders in Canadian history has happened overnight and this morning in Nova Scotia.

Nova Scotia!?! 💔

gun control. now!

Finally something normal

yes very sad, next province away from where i live to.

Wow...really? I thought they had very strict anti-gun laws. And yet some random gun made it across the border, jumped into some rando's hand, and killed a bunch of people. Imagine that...

🙏🙏😢😢♥️♥️🙏🙏😢😢

Only 10 people? Must be nice😒

Hmmm... I guess harsh gun control laws don’t work... remember, kids and liberals... An armed society is a polite society...

Canada always at it 🙄🙄

Horrible Nova Scotia beautiful place beautiful people Grandma was from there

Why in the world would gun crazies take a holiday?

goes to show you that these kinda of people can be in any country :( sending my thoughts to those affected!

OMG! So awful for Heidi & her family.

Canada 🇨🇦 my heart hurts for you. To the families, so very sorry.

Canada is so violent. They really have to do something about their violent culture.

Tell the whole story ... An RCMP Officer was killed in this event... Stop focusing on the shooter!!

-12 hours ago, RCMP were called to a house with dead bodies inside & outside. -While tracking the killer, they came across multiple fires, he probably set. -Police were “involved” w eliminating the threat -He was arrested & died. -So far 10 are dead, including 1 RCPM officer.

Heartbreaking. Prayers for the families 💔

jordan200019 This is absolutely terrible☹️

Coronavirus Canada Economy Canary in the coal mine Stress from the global recession will cause more than a few to act out like that.

False flags here we go. Happy patriots day. shotheardaroundtheworld Qanon

Quarantine is a beeyotch.

You'd expect this in the US on a daily basis but not here 😢😢😢

Murderers aren't bound by countries and nationalities. These subhumans have existed in all cultures and nations since the dawn of time.

Ban all guns ! And fuxk all your gun enthusiasts from America and Canada! Gun control does work , we need more of it ! noNRAmoney and FuckThe_NRA NRABoycott noNRAmoney ! Stop using this as propaganda ! We need to ban all guns in Canada !

noprezzie2012 Guncontrol 🤔

Really, Americans- coming here to gloat? Shut your pieholes.

Crackmacs Just outside of my hometown, and have about 30 family members living there. In 45 years, it's the first i have heard of one being there. Crazy people are everywhere, and will do crazy stupid things. Does not matter what the tool was, it's a people problem.

This doesn't happen in any other country! Thoughts and prayers aren't enough! GunControlNow MomsDemand

So sad.

Wait, Canada has strict gun control laws🤔

Canada? 🤔

CDNTimelord 😔😔😔😔😔😔

alexcooper81 So sad. Horrible

Sad, obviously more victims and with the fires he started the numbers are unknown. I bet there are other crime scenes too the police didn’t locate yet.

Terrible news , rip.

WTF? 😶

ELINTNews They need gun control!!!

Coronavirus probably got to his brain.

Now wait just a damned minute. I was led to believe that in places with strict gun laws shootings never happen, let alone mass shootings. You mean to tell me that’s not the case?

This is beyond heartbreaking. This is a VERY rare occurrence here. We are NOT use to this.

Hmm US Citizens purchasing millions of firearms, Mass Shooting Canada

Fuckin' bizarro world

😢

IntelCrab Ugh

So sorry you have to experience this, Canada 💔 We love you

Deb777 That’s sad 😢

Impossible.

Can't blame us because our shared border is closed and bad waft are not known to traverse closed borders...

Isn’t there gun control in Canada? Almost like it doesn’t work 🤷🏻‍♂️

How is that possible with all those gun restriction laws? Oh are they somehow .. ineffective?

probably came from america

I fuck with Canada 💔💔💔💔

lol: “I feel better now to know he’s in custody,” Mills said. “It’s nerve-wracking because you don’t know if somebody has lost their mind and is going to beat in your front door.” He is dead you canuck

This situation ended near my home. A tragic, tragic day here in our beautiful little province, with more bad news likely to come.

Hey AP..... Slow news day? What happened to reporting on the China’s fault deaths? 🍻

Shootings are mostly rooted in democrats who want disarm America so buckingham palace rule us better. This is why I vote republican next cycle

A shortage on maple syrup is just too much for some people...

Should probably fix that headline then

A) Canada?!? 2. NOVA SCOTIA!?!!!!!!

Rest In Peace to those lost, horrible. However, where is all the Canada is so much better than the US folks now.

Why people? Isn’t there ENOUGH suffering?

Thank you realDonaldTrump for everything you did for us. You are killing us with every possible way. We deserve more than that. Thank you 🙏

Was he a white supremacist? We have to assume he was, and also everyone that died should be added to the Covid-19 death toll.

Yup, we have crazies too. Tragic.

My heart breaks for the families and all of Canada

In Canada!?!?! It’s shocking what the world has come to....

Omg!
