An armed man in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia shot dead at least 10 people, including at least one police officer, during a 12-hour rampage, local media reported on Sunday.

Another police officer was injured in the incident that took place in the coastal town of Portapique, 130 km (80 miles) north of the provincial capital, Halifax.

"In excess of 10 people have been killed,'' the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) Chief Superintendent Chris Leather said. "We believe it to be one person who is responsible for all the killings and that he alone moved across the northern part of the province and committed what appears
to be several homicides.''

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau dubbed it "a terrible situation."

"My heart goes out to everyone affected in what is a terrible situation," Trudeau told reporters.

The suspected shooter, identified as 51-year-old Gabriel Wortman, was shot dead at a gas station, according to local media reports. The RCMP had earlier said the gunman was arrested after a car chase.

Wortman worked as a denturist and operated a clinic in Dartmouth, according to the Denturist Society of Nova Scotia website. A photo released by the RCMP of the suspect matched video footage of Wortman being interviewed by a local media network in 2014.

A 'senseless' act of violence

The incident began late Saturday night, with police urging people to stay indoors. Several building fires were reported and one resident said she saw two police vehicles on fire, while out driving.

Police received a call about "a person with firearms," RCMP Nova Scotia spokesperson Cpl. Lisa Croteau said. The investigation later "evolved into an active shooting investigation," she said.

The next morning, a helicopter flew over the town, searching for the suspect.

Police stated earlier Sunday the suspect was wearing a police uniform and was driving a car that looked like a police vehicle, but later said he was "believed to be driving a small, silver Chevrolet SUV," traveling southbound on a highway. The RCMP also said that the suspect was not an employee or officer.

"This is one of the most senseless acts of violence in our province's history," Nova Scotia Premier Stephen McNeil told reporters. "I never imagined when I went to bed last night that I would wake up to the horrific news that an active shooter was on the loose in Nova Scotia."

April 19 – May 1 is a very important time period to Satanist, Lucifer Followers and the Illuminate. Blood Sacrifice to the Beast Moloch begins a most critical 13-day period. Fire sacrifice is required on April 19th, especially children and women or just plain innocent victims that many just consider collateral damage.

April 19 is the first day of the 13-day Satanic ritual day relating to fire, the fire god, Baal, or Moloch/Nimrod (the Sun God), also known as the Roman god, Saturn (Satan-Devil). This day is a major human sacrifice day, demanding a (Fire sacrifice) with an emphasis on children.
