Alert for active shooter at health clinic in northern Saskatchewan: RCMP

Mounties have issued an alert for an active shooter at a health clinic in northern Saskatchewan.

Residents in Pelican Narrows, about 500 kilometres northeast of Saskatoon, are being asked to find a safe location and lock their doors.

RCMP say the suspect is unknown, and there is no word on casualties.

They are asking people not to share police locations in the community.

Last week, Pelican Narrows issued a notice saying a security checkpoint had been set up again at its entrance because of concerns about trespassing, trafficking and related violence.

The notice says all people trying to enter the community would be asked for valid identification.
