Bondi attack.

Have you had any updates, nanna8?

Was it a lone attacker?

One of my grandsons is over there at the moment on a work visa. I emailed him when I saw the breaking news. Thankfully, although on their way towards the centre, he and his friends were warned by others not to go in. He said they saw the crowds and heard the shots. Frightening indeed.

How stunningly awful. Dreadful to even think of stabbing anyone -but a baby!! How could he? Well done that WPC.

Shocking news.

It is awful.

Nowhere seems free of these dreadful knife attacks these days.
So sorry this has happened in peaceful Australia.

I just asked DH as he saw the early news and he said it had been reported that there were two assailants, but the latest reports seemed to indicate one.

It's being said there were two assailants, one shot and killed and the other still being looked for. It's a very disturbing situation and more so for anyone who lives there.

It's understandable that you are in shock nanna .

I haven't seen the news, nanna8, will now take a look.

It sounds shocking.
I know your police are sometimes accused of being heavy-handed but in this instance thank goodness he was shot otherwise it could have been even more tragic.

Just heard that GG13 great presence of mind by her.

I am watching the news, horrific

I am watching this on the BBC, thank goodness that the female (?) police officer thought quickly and she was armed.

My goodness nanna that’s awful. I often think how much ‘calmer’ Australia is than here but let’s hope such incidents remain rare there.
