3 Canadian policemen killed, manhunt for gunman

Three Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) officers were killed and two others wounded by a gunman in the Canadian city of Moncton in southeastern New Brunswick province Wednesday evening, according to Canadian TV.
The police, who are hunting for the gunman at large, have tweeted a photo of the suspect dressed in military camouflage and carrying guns.
They also urged residents in Moncton and its surrounding areas to lock doors, to stay away from windows and wait for the all-clear from police.
In a statement, New Brunswick Premier David Alward said he was "shocked and saddened" to hear of the tragedy. He appealed to local people to follow the situation and to listen to the advice of police.
