Here is everything we know about the tragedy.
Suspect - Myles Sanderson
Myles Sanderson was one of two brothers hunted by police, wanted in connection with the Saskatchewan stabbings. He died in custody after suffering "medical distress", following a high-speed chase with police.
After he fled the scene, the older Sanderson brother, 32, was hunted by police who rammed him of the road.
He is reported to have died in hospital after suffering self-inflicted wounds.
Authorities found a knife in the style Chevrolet truck reported as stolen and then spotted driving down a highway at 90 mph.
As the manhunt proceeded, the suspect's mother made a direct appeal for him to turn himself in.
She said on CBC News: "Myles, my boy, turn yourself in. Please. You can do this. Come back. Turn yourself in. Do the right thing."
His father added: "Myles, please, please turn yourself in. We don’t want no more hurt. I don’t want nobody hurt any more... please, my son. I love you. Turn yourself in. Be safe."
Assistant Commissioner Rhonda Blackmore said: "This evening our province is breathing a collective sigh of relief."
Of Myles' death, she said: "Shortly after his arrest he went into medical distress. Nearby EMS were called to attend the scene and he was transported to a hospital in Saskatoon.
"I can't speak to the specific manner of death, that's gonna be part of the autopsy that will be conducted."
With Myles now dead, there is concern that the motive behind the killings will never be discovered.
Suspect - Damien Sanderson
Myles' younger brother Damien was found dead shortly after the stabbing with injuries that did not appear self-inflicted.
Police found him "in a heavily grassed area in proximity to a house that was being examined" in the James Smith Cree Nation community itself.
The Sanderson parents acknowledged the grief and suffering caused by the stabbings, their mum insisted she wanted to "apologise for my son, my sons."
Their father said: "I give all my sincere apologies to the families.
"From the bottom of my heart, I mean it. I am so sorry this happened. I don’t know what else to say, what to do... I wish it was a dream."
