Details Released on the Tableridge Campus Shooting: Police Disclose Information

On the 10th, a campus shooting occurred in Tableridge, British Columbia, Canada. On the 11th, police disclosed details about the incident.

At a press conference, police indicated that the tragedy on the 10th began at a private residence. The shooter first killed two relatives at home, then proceeded to Tableridge Middle School to continue the attack.

According to police, several victims within the school were between 12 and 13 years old. One victim was found in a school hallway, with the remaining victims located in the library. None of the victims on campus were related to the shooter.

Police confirmed that the shooter died by suicide. He was 18 years old, named Van Ru Tserael, and had previously attended the school but had dropped out. Police recovered a long gun and a modified handgun at the scene. The legal origin and purchaser of these weapons remain unclear.

Police also updated casualty figures on the 11th, confirming that a total of 9 people, including the shooter, were killed in the incident, not 10 as previously reported.

Police stated that at first they believed a seriously injured female victim had died en route to the hospital, but later confirmed that she still showed vital signs and remains in critical condition. More than 25 people were injured in the incident.

Canada Flies Flags at Half-mast to Mourn the Victims

Starting from the 11th, the Canadian Parliament building and all federal government buildings across the country have flown flags at half-mast for seven days to mourn the victims of the campus shooting.

Canadian Prime Minister Carney told reporters in front of the Parliament building on the same day that this was a "very difficult day" for the entire nation. Carney has canceled the national defense policy conference and other scheduled events for the 11th in order to focus fully on the aftermath.
