At least four people have been killed and several others injured after a gunman opened fire in a community school and another location in Canada.
Officials said that a male suspect is now in custody and children had been moved to safety after the shootings at La Loche community school.
Earlier, the Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, said that five people had been killed, but this was later corrected.
The school shooting was “every parent’s worst nightmare”, Mr Trudeau said.
The Prime Minister, who was speaking in Davos, Switzerland, also praised “the first responders, who acted quickly and bravely”.
The Chief Superintendent of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Maureen Levy, said “a call came in Friday afternoon about a shooting at a school in La Loche.
“Officers went to the La Loche Community School, arrested a suspect and seized his weapon”, he said.
In addition to the school, police are investigating a shooting at a residence in the town of about 2,600 people, Levy said.
