Montreal Police Cmdr. Ian Lafreniere said Thursday that police believe Magnotta fled based on evidence they found at his apartment, and based on a blog Magnotta once wrote about how to disappear.

Magnotta has been added to Interpol's wanted person's list.

Lafreniere says police have been trying to take down an online video that they believe shows Magnotta committing the murder.

Magnotta, believed to originally be from Toronto, was renting an apartment in a working-class Montreal neighborhood. It was behind that building that police found a man's torso in a suitcase in a heap of garbage Tuesday, police said.

That same day, a foot was found in a package mailed to the Conservative party headquarters in Ottawa. A hand was also found at postal warehouse in the Canadian capital. The package with the hand was addressed to the Liberal Party of Canada. Early testing shows the three body parts come from the same man, police said.

Richard Payette, who lived across the hall from Magnotta, said the door of Apartment 208 was left open for part of the day on Wednesday. Payette said there was an overwhelming smell drifting out into the hallway, like bad meat.

Lafreniere said they are investigating the possibility that other body parts might have been mailed. He said the suspect and the victim knew each other.
