I don't know where SW777 lived I hope he is okay this occur in our overnight cycles Nine people were stabbed by an attacker at the Westfield Shopping Centre on Saturday afternoon. Six people have been killed at a busy Sydney shopping centre in a stabbing attack. Nine people were stabbed, including a small child, on Saturday afternoon at the Westfield Shopping Centre in Bondi Junction, which is in the city's eastern suburbs. Seven of the victims remain in a serious condition in hospitals across Sydney. Nine News reported the sixth fatality was the mother of the young child. Armed police shot the suspect, according to local media reports. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said the attack was a scene of violence, but also heorism by the public. “It was also witness to the humanity and the heroism of our fellow Australians, our brave police, our first responders, and of course, everyday people who could never have imagined that they would face such a moment,” he said, paying tribute to people at the shopping centre who helped others. He urged people not to speculate about the attacker’s motives. www.euronews.com/2024/04/13/multiple-people-stabbed-and-1-person-shot-at-a-sydney-shopping-center-media-say

Sound like Law and Order episode I saw once Australia: Sydney knife attacker may have targeted women Australian police said on Monday they were beginning a probe into why a 40-year-old man who had a mental illness appeared to target women as he terrorized a Sydney shopping mall with a large knife, killing six people and wounding a dozen more. Videos shared on social media showed a man pursuing mostly females as he rampaged through the Westfield shopping complex in Bondi Junction in Australia's largest city on Saturday afternoon. In the attack, five of the six people killed, and most of those injured, were females. "It's obvious to me, it's obvious to detectives that seems to be an area of interest that the offender focused on women and avoided the men," New South Wales State Police Commissioner Karen Webb told the Australian Broadcasting Corp (ABC). www.dw.com/en/australia-sydney-knife-attacker-may-have-targeted-women/a-68818348
