Shedden, Ontario
Police arrested five men in the slayings of eight people whose bodies were found on a remote farm in Canada this week. Investigators said the killings appeared to be an “internal cleansing” of a motorcycle gang, the Bandidos. One of the suspects, 56-year-old Wayne Kellestine, is a member. The gangland-style killings were the worst mass murder in Canada in more than a decade. The victims’ bodies, all with gunshot wounds, were found in several vehicles abandoned in a farming community of about 300 people. “It’s like somebody else’s world dropped in on ours,” said Brenda Silcox, owner of the local general store.
