Eight bodies found at Canada farm
The bodies of eight men have been found in several vehicles in woodland on a farm in Canada, police say. The grim discovery was made by a farmer on his land in Elgin County, Ontario.
Police have launched a murder hunt and say it is possible more bodies will be found. They say all the men were white but have given few other details.
"We are not in a position to release any information about the persons, the motive or the cause of death," said Ontario Police Sergeant Dave Rektor.
The farm is near the village of Shedden, about 20km (12 miles) from the city of St Thomas, south-west of Toronto.
Police say the bodies were found in three cars and a tow truck.
Sgt Rektor refused to confirm media speculation that all eight men had gunshot wounds.
Officers say the murder probe is at a very early stage, but say the farmer who reported the discovery of the bodies is not considered a suspect.

No, but this seems very weird. Thanks for posting it, I am interested in what others think might be the story.

Clearly the sectarian violence points toward a looming civil war in Canada.

No. There was a thread posted earlier, but it didn't specify that they were all men.

Oh, they were all white? No problem then. Move along.

Thanx.
I wonder why they think there may still be more victims?

Ping! The frogs are at it again. Clearly the separatists are on the march.

The eight men can't have died of gunshot wounds. Canada has strict gun control, and a gun registry. Must be bad police work.

I live in the Detroit area and WWJ radio has been in contact with a local radio reporter on the scene.
They believe it is part of a war between two rival gangs - the Banditos and Hell's Angels. All eight are men and they have been shot. They have pretty much ruled out the mob - not its style.
