Four people have been killed in a school shooting in Canada's Saskatchewan province in La Loche and one man has been arrested.

According to The Guardian, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau described the shooting as "every parent's worst nightmare".

Acting mayor Kavin Janvier said that his 23-year-old daughter who taught at the school was among the dead.

In a media briefing, Chief Superintendent Maureen Levy of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) said that chaos in the immediate wake of the shooting made some of the early information unreliable.

Levy said that there is a lot of information going back and forth in such incidents.

 

The number of people injured could not be confirmed.
