Other officials are returning to the city because of this situation...I think they’re staging further.
There’s more going on I think...for obvious reasons not going to inform the public more than they have to.
If that indeed was an ‘escape’...those people put the others at risk by doing so....
Wonder if this guy is a ‘throw-away’, to gauge response and resolve?
did you really just say that ?
Something’s up, that seems apparent. But I agree they won’t tip their hand any more than they can help it. They still don’t know if there are others involved with this. I wanna know where this guy’s two buddies are.
I had the same thought as you about the three who escaped. Maybe that’s why they brought the big trucks in. They may expect an explosion since people in buildings facing the café are being told to stay inside by the police.
I’m holding my breath and hoping this doesn’t get really ugly.
If it’s an escape, it was the policeman who probably waved them out at the door, if the gunman was with his back to them.
The ABC24 U TUBE live feed said they estimated the hostages at 30 that had been talked about, but did not have a number. IF that many are in there, the gunman may not miss a few...the 3 that left. Unknown, if gunman released them.
