Mass shooting and possible Terrorist attack in New Zealand

Breaking news here, in my old home town of Christchurch, a Mass shooting has just occurred,
a man entered a Mosque, no word on how many causalities.

The visiting Bangladesh cricket team was visiting at the time, so it may of been politically
motivated.

Just too sad.

Two mosques, one in the city one in a suburb.

Unconfirmed reports of a shooter at the local hospital.

And there might not be anything anyone can do to stop it.
