From nbcnews.com:
One of two suspects in stabbing attacks in Canada that killed 10 people has been found dead, police said Monday.
The body of Damien Sanderson, 31, was found on the James Smith Cree Nation in Saskatchewan at 11:30 a.m., said Assistant Commissioner Rhonda Blackmore, commanding officer of the Saskatchewan Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
Sanderson and Myles Sanderson, his brother, were named as suspects in the stabbing deaths of 10 people that occurred Sunday.
Myles Sanderson, 30, may be injured, but that has not been confirmed, Blackmore said at a news conference.
"We do want the public to know this as there is a possibility he may seek medical attention," Blackmore said. "It does not mean he is not still dangerous."
Damien Sanderson had visible injuries that are not believed to have been self-inflicted, Blackmore said. A cause of death will be determined later, she said.
His body was found “outdoors in a heavily grassed area in proximity to a house that was being examined,” Blackmore said.
Asked at Monday's news conference whether Myles Sanderson is suspected in his brother's death, Blackmore said investigators could not say.
"We haven’t confirmed that. We can’t say one way or the other if Myles was involved in the death of Damien," she said. "It is an investigative avenue that we are following up on, but we can't say that definitively at this point."
Including Myles Sanderson, 19 people have been injured in the attacks, which spanned 13 identified crime scenes, officials said. Their medical conditions were not released. With the discovery of Damien Sanderson's body, she said, the number of deaths was 11.

Thoughts? Placing this case in the Fugitives on TV section for what should be obvious reasons since this has made national news here in the U.S. as well.
