"It will be alleged that the man approached the police with the large carving knife," Assistant Commissioner Clifford said.
"The officers each fired shots at the offender. He was wounded several times. Unfortunately some bystanders were also injured with either bullet or fragment wounds and, all up, we have four people who have been injured in gunfire."
The three bystanders are all female, aged between 60 and 80, and in hospital in a stable condition.

but did he run AT the cop, or was he running past the cop, I know there are so many what ifs etc....but what if the cop side stepped, backed away??
Interesting theyre NOW showing the wider shot with the scissors AND a knife...wasnt the knife there previously??
Yes, she was defending herself....apparently, but in doing so she shot how many people...is her life invaluable? that shooting a total of 4 people is justifiable?? Lets see what comes of this...
The sad thing is that this 'event' will go down in history, and be referred to forever and a day as one of those 'mass shootings' that the tards relentlessly refer to as justification for more 'civilian' gun control laws.... the police can have their guns as they are more trustworthy and responsible - oh hang on....
This will be swept under the proverbial carpet quicker than you can say 'yes union defends its members to the through thick and thin right or wrong'
The projectile probably hit something hard and fragmented.

By the display of markmanship (or lack of) I'd say there was a second shooter, hiding near a grassy knoll, the bullet passing through the first old lady then hitting the baymarree of the hotdog stand, thenthe bullets fragmentation wound stricking the second old lady then, as it passed through her hand bag, it was defleted by her pension card into the third old lady.
Obviously, there is a government conspiracy to solve the ageing population problem, one police shooting at a time. Somebody call the Xfiles.
