Juno News CONFIRMS Tumbler Ridge shooter was TRANS
A tragic mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge, B.C., leaves nine dead and dozens injured, as RCMP withhold details and Juno News is the first outlet to confirm the identity of the 17-year-old suspect.
A horrific mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia, has left nine victims dead, plus the shooter, and dozens more injured.
RCMP has not released the shooter’s identity or background, but Juno News confirmed the suspect as 17-year-old Jesse Strang, who identified as transgender.
Police initially described the suspect as a “female with brown hair wearing a dress” and said the individual was found deceased at the scene from self-inflicted wounds.
Six victims were discovered at the school, one died en route to the hospital, and two were airlifted to Vancouver with life-threatening injuries. Twenty-five others were treated for non-life-threatening injuries. Authorities also reported two additional victims at a nearby residence, believed to be family members of the shooter.
In international news, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt addressed ongoing U.S. concerns over the Gordie Howe International Bridge. Leavitt confirmed that President Donald Trump still seeks a greater American stake in the project, citing economic benefits from U.S. traffic.
When asked about his conversation with the U.S. president, Mark Carney described the phone call as “positive,” but discussions over ownership and concessions remain unresolved.
Plus, Conservative MP Mike Dawson has formally rejected the $10,000 pay raise that all MPs are set to receive in April. Dawson sent a letter to the parliamentary clerk requesting to be removed from the automatic increase, stating that the raise is “frankly distasteful” while many Canadians have not seen meaningful wage growth in decades.
Another 'trans' shooter. When will we acknowledge that this is a mental illness??!!
Just more proof that Premier Smith was right.
