The boy attack stabbed another man in an incident police said had the “hallmarks” of terrorism but was yet to be declared a terrorist act.
Western Australia police shot dead a “radicalized” 16-year-old boy on Saturday night after he stabbed a man in Perth.
State Premier Roger Cook said the teenager attacked a man and then “rushed” at police officers, armed with a kitchen knife.
The police responded by shooting him twice with Tasers before firing a single fatal shot.
Nah, I think it was the part where he stabbed a dude and then rushed at the cops afterwards.
Not just stabbed. Attack stabbed.
I don’t know, seems like an unfortunately common health crisis.
But “terrorism” sure gets clicks.
A stabbing is a stabbing. It’s not terrorism, and the article provided no evidence of any “radicalization”.
Media literacy?
He appears to have been radicalized. This other source shows his message that he posted to other people before the attack.
