Australian police kill ‘radicalized’ teen knifeman

The officers have neutralized the assailant who had carried out a stabbing attack in Perth

Australian police have shot dead a 16-year-old suspect who stabbed a member of the public at a car park in Perth on Saturday and then charged towards the officers.

“There are indications he had been radicalized online,” Western Australia Premier Roger Cook said at a news conference on Sunday. He added that “it appears he acted solely and alone.”
