Matthew Douglas de Grood, the son of a veteran police officer, has been charged with five counts of murder following the killings in Calgary.

Police Chief Rick Hanson said: "We have never seen five people killed at one scene. The scene was horrific."

At least 20 people were at the house party which was being held to celebrate the end of term at the University of Calgary.

De Grood, 22, was invited to the party and soon after arriving picked up a large knife and began stabbing people one after another.

Three men were found dead at the scene while another man and a woman died at a local hospital soon after.

You ought to see my driver's license photo.

There needs to be a law, kitchen knives with a blade longer than 1/8 inch should be banned!

What the hell is going in with young people and these mass killings?

This type of thing was unheard of years ago.

I meant kids attacking and killing other kids-—not psycho serial killers.

His father is a long time police officer, I’m assuming his mother is Asian.

I think Lizzie Borden was a teenager but then again she was found not guilty. Now that I think about it, maybe she wasn’t a teen.
