Update on Suspicious Deaths

It was determined the victims were injured by firearm.

The investigation continues, which includes police speaking with individuals who may have relevant information to share, as well as evidence analysis. Neighbourhood canvasses have also occurred on Carry the Kettle Nakoda Nation.

At this time no arrests have been made in relation to the deaths of the four victims.

“We are actively investigating this tragedy to piece together the details of what happened – this takes time. We must be mindful that releasing more specific details could impact the overall investigation,” said Inspector Ashley St. Germaine, Senior Investigative Officer of Saskatchewan RCMP Major Crimes.

“I reiterate: if you have information to share about this investigation, please speak directly with the police so it can be examined thoroughly. Rumours can spread quickly. Please remember the loss the victim’s loved ones have experienced. Misinformation can impact an investigation by rerouting investigators in false directions. Investigations must follow evidence and our investigators are trained to do just that.”
