Multiple deaths in Australia mall stabbing (VIDEOS)

The incident took place in a suburb of Sydney, with locals advised to stay away from the area

By RT International

Six people have been killed in a stabbing attack in Westfield Bondi Junction, an eastern suburb of Sydney, Australia, the local authorities and media reported on Saturday.

Earlier, New South Wales police confirmed that a “critical incident” took place following the shooting of an unidentified man in the area. They added that officers scrambled to the scene after receiving reports of multiple people being stabbed.

NSW Police Assistant Commissioner Anthony Cook said it appears that the attacker acted alone.

“As he moved to the center, he engaged with about nine people, and it’s clear that during that engagement he caused harm to those people, we believe by stabbing them with a weapon he was carrying,” the officer told the media. He added that an inspector who was nearby tried to stop the man, and had to shoot him dead when he raised the knife against her.

“I’m advised that there are five victims who are now deceased,” he said.

According to NSW Ambulance, a total of eight patients have been hospitalized, including a nine-month-old baby.
