At least 10 people have been killed and another 15 injured in a stabbing rampage in Canada's central Saskatchewan province.

The victims were found in 13 different locations, including in the James Smith Cree Nation and nearby Weldon.

Two suspects named as Damien Sanderson and Myles Sanderson are on the run and considered armed and dangerous.

Residents have been told to shelter in place, as a massive manhunt continues across the entire vast province.

A state of emergency has been declared in the James Smith Cree Nation - an indigenous reserve north-east of the small village of Weldon.

And a dangerous person alert was sent to all mobile phones across the provinces of Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Alberta.
