Sydney Siege

Recommended Posts

Seen that on one of the Australian news channels sites that has a live feed going. Appears to be true.

Latest from a radio station is that the hostage takers are demanding to speak with Tony Abbott live on air...

Yes, I'm in Sydney and watching on the news. One of the TV channels is across from the cafe and had a live camera running. Their building has been evacuated now and the police have asked for the cameras to be switched off. 

 

My wife's not far away at a major bank and her building has been closed with no one allowed in or out.

Hope everything is ok and this an 'isolated' incident. Stay safe! Edited by Tayls

A muslim religious "educator" had offered to assist police with the negotiations apparently but no negotiations have commenced so far as we know. I really hope they can sort this out quickly and safely, except for the scumbags who have done this.

Doesn't really fit the ISIS modus operandi; if these guys are real ISIS, those hostages would be dead. I'm thinking these are just local small timers with no idea what they're doing. 

 

Hope nobody is hurt, scary situation.

The local Murdoch tabloid has decided to jump the gun and issue a special 2pm commemorative edition where they imply all the hostages will die. The number of hostages has not been confirmed and the link to ISIS is just speculation.
