BREAKING: Gunman screaming 'Allahu Akbar' opens fire in Spanish supermarket

A GUNMAN has opened fire in a Spanish supermarket while shouting "Allahu Akbar", police have said.

The man was reportedly carrying gasoline and gunpowder in his pockets as he entered the Mercadona shop, in As Lagoas.

Numerous shoppers were inside making their purchases when the armed assailant entered and fired several shots.

A supermarket employee said the man, who was standing just a few metres from him, yelled "Allahu Akbar", which translates to "God is greatest".

Police arrived at the scene to arrest the attacker.

One witness told local media: "Agents came out with a vest shouting and pushing the people."

He said: "I had the impression that he ran out of ammunition."

Police sources told local media the gunman, who has been previously arrested, is believed to have psychological problems.

Local media reported that the attacker had been living in the area for six months and had previously shopped in the supermarket.

Impossible. It must have been a sneezing person upset at the limited selection at the snack bar.

Islam is a psychological problem.

Obama just said that they don’t have a motive.

Now let’s not jump to conclusions and rush to judgement about this incident being tied to Islam.

Do we know anything about the terrorist’s motive? I don’t see any clues on why he might have attacked innocent strangers.

I propose a new World Constitutional Amendment: For every ordinary citizen killed in a terrorist attack, a member of that Nation’s govt. responsible for allowing/promoting/ignoring/excusing the attacks is dragged from their homes and whipped mercilessly in the Town Square.....any seconds?

*sigh* Another day, another violent incident completely unrelated to Islamic terrorism.

Ok, he screamed "Allauh Akbar"...which translates to "God is Great". So essentially he yelled God is Great. Of course that means he was likely religious, and of a religion that believed in some great God. Now the religion with the biggest share of the population of the world that believes in a great God is Christianity, so he was likely Christian. And since he was using a gun, it must mean he was right wing. And of course right wing Christians are usually Americans and supporters for Trump. Now when a Trump supporter does something violent its Trump's fault. So essentially Trump opened fire on the people himself...which proves Trump is Hitler. </satire of leftwing "logic">

Well, lets be honest here. The place had served ham in the last 37 years, so there is that.

We have to be considerate of the demands of the followers if Islam, give up our traditions and adopt theirs.

Like hell we do!

I first read that headline as “German screaming “Allah Akbar” opens fire in Spanish supermarket.”

And, I wasn’t surprised.
