Najmanje 16 ljudi ubijeno je u poludnevnom mahnitom pohodu ubojice u kanadskoj pokrajini Novoj Škotskoj, objavila je policija.

Među mrtvima su i jedna policajka Kraljevske kanadske konjičke policije (Royal Canadian Mountain Police - RCMP) i sam napadač.

Napadač Gabriel Wortman (51), po podacima kanadskih medija zubni tehničar, pucao je punih 12 sati po ljudima na nekoliko lokacija u Novoj Škotskoj, a policija je u međuvremenu ažurirala brojku od prvotnih 10 mrtvih.

Earlier identified as 51-year-old Gabriel Wortman, the suspect had been on the run since Saturday night, when police were alerted to shots being fired in the small community of Portapique, around 100 kilometers (60 miles) from Halifax, capital of the Atlantic province.

Zasad je nepoznato koji su Wortmanovi motivi. "Čini se da je pucao vrlo nasumično", kazao je Leathner.

On je pronađen mrtav nakon višesatne policijske potrage, a zasad je nepoznato je li se ubio sam ili je ubijen u obračunu s policijom.

Među njegovim žrtvama i policajka Heidi Stevenson, veteranka s 23-godišnjim stažem u službi. Majka je dvoje djece.

Pokolj je počeo u malom ruralnom naselju Portapiqueu, otprilike 130 kilometara od pokrajinskog glavnog grada Halifaxa. Policija je ondje pronašla nekoliko žrtava.

Kasnije se pokazalo da je Wortman nosio odoru nalik onoj RCMP-a i vozio automobil sličan policijskom.

Ovo je najgore masovno ubojstvo u Kanadi, koja suprotno od susjednog SAD-a ima stroge zakone o kontroli naoružanja, u modernoj povijesti.

Premijer Justin Trudeau izrazio je sućut žrtvama i kazao da se radi o strašnom zločinu.
