One person is dead and paramedics are assessing 20 people after a car hit a group of pedestrians in Melbourne's CBD, sparking a major police operation. 3dead http://mobile.abc.net.au/news/2017-01-20/live-car-hits-pedestrians-in-melbourne-cbd/8197998 http://mobile.abc.net.au/news/2017-01-20/car-hits-several-pedestrians-in-melbournes-cbd/8197876 Might be some creep on meth.
Wonder The police seems to elude that this is related a stabbing earlier in the morning, hope it wasn't the case of the stabber being spotted by police and police giving chase, which led to this. Especially since police seems to be on site in numbers within seconds. I'm not judging anything but I hope it wasn't a chase gone bad.
Three dead. Not terrorism related. Connected to a suburban stabbing. https://twitter.com/rcallimachi/status/822298944608862209 A greek who stabbed his brother?
Seems like the offender stabbed a family member earlier in the day. Catch 22 situation, I can see VIC police getting crucified over this, dammed if you do and dammed if you dont.
Perps FB revealed Greek Aussie converted to Mohammadans cult, plus eyewitness heard Allah Akbar shouted out.
Heard on channel 9 that it was likely terrorist related. Nothing confirmed yet but who would do such a thing except for radical Islam terrorist? [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fb8JTFxc2Xg[/youtube]
James "Jimmy" Gargasoulas, 26, currently on bail after being charged with family violence offences last weekend. He is known to police for drug-related issues, family violence assaults and has "an extensive family violence history". It is understood that police began pursuing Mr Gargasoulas on Friday in a maroon-coloured sedan after he allegedly took a woman hostage, who later escaped on the Bolte Bridge. I highly doubt this is a "radical Islam terrorist" - just a mentally unhinged drug user from Melbourne.
Heard on channel 9 that it was likely terrorist related. Nothing confirmed yet but who would do such a thing except for radical Islam terrorist? ....... . A madman on drugs who had just stabbed a relative.
The bystander who alleged the guy was yelling "Allah Ackbar" whilst driving reminds me of the chk ... chk .. boom girl from a few years back .. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBBsb0z9RJk Just another nobody who wanted to get their face on the news, and really didnt care if they had to lie to do it, by the sounds of it.
