A mass shooting shakes Canada, a third ransom note emerges in the Nancy Guthrie case, and SpaceX is cleared for its next manned mission. I'm Georgia Howe with Daily Wire Executive Editor John Bickley. It's Wednesday, February 11th, and this is Evening Wire.
Nine people are dead and 25 injured after a school shooting in Canada. Daily Wire reporter Tim Pearce has the story.
The shooting is the third deadliest in the nation's history. It took place at the Tumbler Ridge Secondary School in a rural area of British Columbia. Authorities responded within two minutes of receiving calls where they found six dead, including the shooter who died of apparent self-inflicted wounds. Two others were found dead in a nearby home believed to be connected to the shooting. One more victim died while in transit to the hospital. Authorities have not released the identity of the perpetrator, but witnesses describe the shooter as, quote, a woman in a dress. But a superintendent of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, who is investigating the shooting, used vague wording to describe the suspect, referring to the shooter not as a gunman or gunwoman, but as a gun person.
Speculation about the gender identity of the shooter is mounting online. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has suspended his planned international travel to attend to the tragedy.
Authorities released a man detained in the search for Nancy Guthrie, and a third ransom note has emerged. Daily Wire reporter Lyndon Blake has the latest.
A delivery driver named Carlos was detained for questioning Tuesday in relation to the Nancy Guthrie case and released several hours later. Authorities said they received a tip and they followed up on it down to Rio Rico, Arizona, which is south of Tucson, about 12 miles from the Mexico border. Carlos did speak to the media after he was released and said authorities told him they thought his eyes matched the masked armed intruder from the video from Nancy's doorbell camera.

TMZ said the note said the author knew the location of the kidnapper. TMZ was able to also confirm that Bitcoin account listed in the note was legit, though authorities haven't confirmed the legitimacy of that note.
The closure of the El Paso airport this week caused a lot of confusion. The FAA closed and then reopened the airport way ahead of its own deadline. Officials have offered conflicting accounts of why that airspace was closed, at first citing cartel drones as the reason. Officials are now saying it was actually the testing of anti-drone tech. which could have posed a threat to aircraft in the area. The closure, which ordered all flights grounded for 10 days, was issued late last night, surprising local officials, but it was lifted far ahead of schedule this morning, just seven hours later. The El Paso mayor stated in a press conference that he's still looking for answers from the feds.
The US economy added 130,000 new jobs in January. That upswing marks the strongest job growth in over a year. The growth was mostly seen in the healthcare and social assistance sectors. The labor department says unemployment dipped to 4.3% in December while workers' wages rose. The construction sector also grew by 33,000 jobs, credited to new demand for massive data centers, while the white collar sector took a nearly equivalent hit.
President Trump's tariffs faced a setback in Congress today. House Speaker Mike Johnson attempted to block votes on resolutions disapproving of Trump's tariff. However, the vote failed, with three Republicans crossing the aisle to vote with all 214 House Democrats. The move clears the path for congressional challenges to Trump's tariff policy.
