Police say 29-year-old Jayme Pasieka is also facing two charges of possessing an offensive weapon.


Pasieka was arrested after a man with a knife in each hand, and wearing a protective vest, burst into the Loblaws warehouse and started stabbing people through the complex.


Two people were killed in the attack and four others were hurt, two seriously.


The attacker fled the scene and was arrested without incident three hours later when his vehicle was spotted by an alert citizen.


Police say Pasieka worked at the warehouse, but they have not said what the motive was for the attack.


The weapons used in the attack have not been found, police say.
