A third man, who is in his thirties, remains in hospital with injuries described as non-life-threatening, while the fourth person who has been detained in relation to this incident is currently in the hospital facing life threatening injuries.

A local man who did not want to be named said apartments in the area “are really expensive” and added of the incident: “You wouldn’t expect it.”

The investigators on this case do not believe this to be a terrorism related case, although the motive for the incident is yet to be uncovered.

The entire hush-hush vibe surrounding this incident is somewhat disturbing to me, but I will provide more details as I get them.
