Current Major incident at Bondi Junction

[Kurve]

There's some more information in this police presser. It's gone up to five dead now with many conveyed to hospital in critical condition.

 

[Proeagle]

Annoying that the offender wont have to face the media and court system but also glad hes dead as he would probably be on the streets again in 20 years or so.

 

[Kurve]

The female police officer who shot the offender, attended the incident on her own.

 

[Paul Kersey]

Good work by the police lady.

This to me, is unhinged Domestic Terrorism. My prayers are for all those involved. Shocking.

 

[Rob R]

Was it another member of the religion of peace?

Who knows but there is a chance as well that the bloke at the top of escalator was one as well.

Good work by the police lady.

Excellent work, she responded immediately with zero back up and went straight to him.

One bloke diverted him up the escalator. Watching the footage, if he wasnt there, a mother and 3 kids may have been stabbed. They were shockingly oblivious to it all considering everyone running past them.

 

[Paul Kersey]

Excellent work, she responded immediately with zero back up and went straight to him.

Yeah - she's a hero. Tough ****ing job.

 

[Tony Harrison]

Shocking, that's the difference with gun laws though, if this was USA, then 50 people would be dead. You'd expect the police to have put him down

Pro-gun yanks will say that if the bystanders had guns they could have stopped it earlier.

Yeah that's true, but if one person has a sub machine gun, so many people can be shot quickly in a short space of time before any realises what's going on and pulls out their hand gun that they have to be willing to use to kill someone

Wearing an Australian Rugby League team jersey. Interesting choice of apparel.

ASIO gona have their work cut out, if they didn't already.

Oh, I agree with your first point, just nothing will change their mind.

What a legend that copper is. Free beers for life.

That guy at top of the escalator was the real hero. Really tied the guy up on the escalator so he couldnt attack anyone and he only had a bollard as defence. Cop then had a chance to sneak up and shoot him.

I believe they know, sadly.

Theres footage and videos on twitter.

Team work, both were heroic.

 

[Percel]

Wearing a kangaroos jersey, crazy weird.

This is heart breaking stuff

Well done to that bloke, he helped the situation it seems.

A terrible tragedy, I guess the perpetrator had mental health issues. Doesn't excuse what he did though.

Plain clothes officers would have probably been not too far behind the heroic police officer that shot the attacker dead.

‘God-tier legend’: Dramatic video captures moment man confronts Bondi attacker on escalator

The man, dressed in a white T-shirt and jeans, was described by admirers on social media as “bravery personified” in the face of danger.

www.smh.com.au

'A separate video ... showed two people in plain clothes – one of whom was carrying a chair – following a police officer as she ran through the shopping centre.
...
During another stabbing rampage in the Sydney CBD in 2019, firefighters and other bystanders managed to pin the attacker – Mert Ney – to the ground using a chair and a milk crate.

I hope the baby and mumma are ok.....

Not sure if this is legit?

Edit: Original tweet has gone, but I got this screenshot of it before it disappeared.

Is that an Australian rugby league jersey he is wearing? NRL won't want that image shown too much.

Tougher knife laws incoming?
