Knife attack in Sydney: Heroic policewoman stops gunner

The shocking attack in a shopping center in Sydney has put the state of Australia in grief. Six people fell victim to a man who was armed with a knife. These are five women and one man. The tragic act only ended when a brave policewoman resolved and stopped the attacker. This was then shot by the emergency services.

Australia's Prime Minister Anthony Albanese praised the brave policewoman as a heroine because she saved life through her quick intervention. Eyewitnesses reported chaotic scenes when the perpetrator was wrong through the shopping center and the people struggled in fear and panic. At this point, the police excluded a terrorist background of the crime, since the perpetrator was known to the police, but was not suspected of terrorist.

The residents and visitors of Sydney were traveling late Saturday afternoon to enjoy the warm temperatures and to do purchases. The attack occurred in a busy six -story shopping center near the famous Bondi Beach. Numerous people had to hide in shops, while the police were on site with a large contingent to bring the situation under control.

The incident in Sydney is an unusual and tragic memory of the rarity of such attacks in Australia. Despite the incident, there is currently no increased terrorist warning level in the country, although the government emphasizes that such incidents are always possible. The residents of Sydney and all of Australia came together through this worrying act to commemorate the victims and to stand up to each other.
