Authorities in Canada said Sunday that at least 10 people, including a police officer, were killed in a mass shooting in Nova Scotia over the weekend.

The suspect, identified earlier as Gabriel Wortman, 51, was killed after a lengthy manhunt, said Chris Leather, the criminal operations officer with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in Nova Scotia.

Commanding Officer Lee Bergerman identified the officer as constable Heidi Stevenson, a 23-year veteran of the force. She was married with two children. Another officer was hospitalized with non-life threatening injuries, Bergerman said.

“The impact of the incident will extend from one end of the province to the other,” Bergerman told reporters.

Police went to a home in the small rural community of Portapique on Saturday night in response to multiple 911 calls, Leather said. On arrival, they found several bodies inside and outside the home but no suspect, Leather said.

The relationship between the victims and the suspect wasn’t immediately clear. Leather declined to specify a potential motive, saying it was too early in the investigation. He said the shooting appeared to be random, but added Wortman was wearing a police uniform and driving a “mock up” of a Mountie cruiser when he fled the scene.

This pre-planning made it seem as though it wasn’t a random act, he said.

An initial search for Wortman led to multiple structures that were on fire, Leather said. The search later continued continued to “multiple” communities around Nova Scotia.

Wortman was located Sunday morning and is now dead, Leather said. Authorities did not say how he died.

Tom Taggert, a councillor for the area for for the Municipality of Colchester, told the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation that Portapique was a “beautiful, quiet, rural community” with about 100 to 250 residents.
