[10 killed in Canada stabbing spree]( At least 10 people were killed and 15 injured Sunday in a stabbing spree in and near an Indigenous community in the province of Saskatchewan, Canada. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police said the victims were stabbed, apparently at random, in several places in the James Smith Cree Nation and the nearby village of Weldon. Police urged residents to shelter in place as they searched for two "armed and dangerous" suspects, identified as Damien Sanderson and Myles Sanderson. Rhonda Blackmore, a commander with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, said officers were investigating at least 13 crime scenes. The James Smith Cree Nation declared a state of emergency until Sept. 30.

[U.K. Conservative party names new leader and next prime minister]( Britain's ruling Conservatives announced early Monday that Liz Truss has been selected as the party's new leader, and the U.K.'s next prime minister. Truss was the favorite after a weeks-long leadership contest against Rishi Sunak, a former finance minister. She will replace Boris Johnson, who resigned in July after numerous scandals. Johnson will travel to Scotland on Tuesday to formally hand his resignation to Queen Elizabeth. His successor will then be asked to form a new government. The next prime minister will be the Conservatives' fourth since 2015. The new leader will take over ahead of what economists warn could be a long recession, with inflation that hit 10.1 percent in July.

[Voters reject proposed new constitution in Chile]( Chilean voters on Sunday overwhelmingly rejected a proposal to adopt a new, left-leaning constitution to replace the one imposed by the dictatorship of Gen. Augusto Pinochet 41 years ago. The old constitution is one of the most market-friendly in the world. The referendum proposed a new one intended to be more egalitarian, establishing universal health care, abortion rights, and dozens of other constitutional and Indigenous rights. Critics said the changes were too drastic. With 92 percent of the ballots tallied on Sunday night, 62 percent had voted against the new constitution, according to Chile's electoral authority. The referendum was held to fulfill a promise to working- and middle-class Chileans who protested high prices and low wages in 2019.

[Bed Bath & Beyond CFO dies in fall from Manhattan apartment building]( New York City police on Sunday identified a man who jumped to his death from a Manhattan high-rise apartment as Gustavo Arnal, chief financial officer of Bed Bath & Beyond.

Bed Bath & Beyond said the company was "profoundly saddened by this shocking loss." The home-goods retailer has been struggling with severe financial problems, and said this week it would lay off about 20 percent of its corporate employees, close 150 stores, line up $500 million in financing, and cut back on in-house brands to focus on selling national brands as it fights to boost sales and avoid bankruptcy.

Nine people remained missing, the U.S. Coast Guard said. The plane was flying to the suburb of Renton, south of Seattle, after taking off from Friday Harbor, a popular tourist destination in the San Juan Islands. The plane crashed in Mutiny Bay off Whidbey Island, about 30 miles northwest of downtown Seattle. The National Transportation Safety Board said the single-propeller plane was a de Havilland DHC-3 Otter. Investigators could not immediately determine the cause of the crash.
