Benji 20,113 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Looks like the attacker was only disabled (shot in the leg) so hopefully we can get a full story and lock the c*nt up. From images, it seems he isn't white so I doubt it's IRA / McGuinness related. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

prince 4,688 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Two people dead, one man arrested and I think in hospital, the attacker was seen on a stretcher getting into an ambulance. They aren't sure if he was alone or with anyone else. Shows that terrorist attacks arent always bombs and guns and we should be careful Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
