Eight people were killed in a school shooting on Tuesday afternoon in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia, in which the suspected shooter, identified as 18-year-old Jesse Van Rootsleaar, also ended up dead, bringing the total to nine.
Dept. Comm. Dwayne McDonald, BC RCMP commanding officer, said when officers arrived at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School on Tuesday afternoon, following reports of an active shooter, gunshots were fired in their direction.
“It didn’t feel real. It sounded like construction or something and then we heard screams,” said student Payten MacNeil.
Two injured people have been airlifted to hospital with serious or life‑threatening injuries and approximately 25 others were assessed and triaged at the local medical centre for non‑life‑threatening injuries. Katherine Ludwig reports.
