Sidney Mass Murderer Who Killed 7 in Sydney Mall Stabbing Attack Was a Male Escort Who Had History of Mental Illness
A mass stabbing took place on Saturday at the Westfield Shopping Centre in Bondi Junction in Sydney, Australia on Saturday.
The terrorist murdered six people, including at least five women and one man, in the deadly attack.
Authorities say they are unsure of the killer’s motive.
The AP reported:
The 40-year-old was stopped in the knifing attack at the Westfield Shopping Centre in Bondi Junction, which is in the city’s eastern suburbs, when a police inspector shot him after he turned and raised a knife, New South Wales Assistant Police Commissioner Anthony Cooke told reporters.
“They just said run, run, run — someone’s been stabbed,” one witness told ABC TV in Australia. ”(The attacker) was walking really calmly like he was having an ice cream in a park. And then he went up the escalators … and probably within about a minute we heard three gunshots.”…
…police wouldn’t identify the man yet and were still working to determine his motivation.
