wow... bad start to the week

[adznight]

Reminds me of an old song "I don't like Mondays, I'm gonna shoooot shooot-oooo-oooo-ooo-ooot, the whole day down"

Yeah bad news RIP to the victim Very scary story, makes you think twice about helping people in distress huh. Worst bit it I would have done the same, ran to help!

[Bec]

Hope noone from here is invovled.

RIP to the deceased.

Must be the time of year for it..

When I saw the story title I thought maybe it had been on our street!

Last night the cop chopper was flying around for ages shining their light up and down the street and then 10mins later 2 ambulances went flying past. :\

The chopper flies above the house all the time.. and this is a quiet street..

[ferni]

This world sucks - one less good guy who was just trying to help. And people wonder why others don't help when they see something f**ked happening.

Around the corner from me... and im here in lockdown.

Cant leave the bloody office.

SIF the gunman is still gonig to be anywhere near this place.

Mate here @ work who sits next to me, his mate saw the whole thing right infront of him on his way to a job interview...

Certainly not a good start to the day.

The man is described as being 192cms tall

192cm? wonder who gave that description

"She was powerless. A couple of guys came to assist … he pulled out a gun."

"He shot one of the guys twice. Then he shot the woman and then the other guy."

what gets me is how some1 thinks he is better then another and can do as he pleases, prick shot 3 people as if they were nothing

its said the girl was a stripper at spearmint rhino, and was doing a half naked/full naked dance for the boss at the bar. The shooter tried to drag her out, but was stopped by one of hte other patrons at the bar. Then later he tried to get her form a taxi or something (theage.com.au)

bad way to start the week

RIP to the deceased.

mental retardation prevents people such as this gunman from being rational....thats what happend with the v-tech shootings too...the gunman got it in his head that people were against him..

A girl in my complex works at Spearmint, i hope she wasnt working

Apparently the alleged gunman was last seen on St Kilda Road.

Took nearly an hour to get from Lonsdale and Russell to Crown this morning. Walking to the office was kinda scary with cops in flak jackets and helicopters flying around. The news on the radio was pretty vague at 0830 and 0900 saying that there was an area cordened off in the city due to an "accident".

This was no bloody accident.

[jimmytim]

Still no news on where abouts the gunman is....

[HypeR33]

I had to drive through it this morning...was wondering why cop cars were appearing out of nowhere. I was just before William St when they blocked off the road. I didn't know what was going on until I heard it on the radio after I had already past through.

Very bad start to the week...and another reason why people will more reluctant to give a helping hand!!

RIP to the deceased just trying to help out.

[inark]

Yeah its all over the news... interrupted the US Open this morning... rang a mate to make sure he was ok as it happened near my old work.

Its amazing how many different variations of what happened there are... i watched channel 10 and heard one thing... watched 9 and heard another and then read something different again in the age. No matter what version it is tho its a pretty shitty thing.

[eMsta]

they now know the killers identity and have issued warrants for the f**ker

the person who died is a 43 year old lawyer

[R-SPEC]

f**ked how people just think other people's lives are theirs to take.

was walking on william st only a few days ago and telling a mate how good it would be living over here. really makes you think...

RIP to the deceased

[eMsta]

just watched the news - man that woman was pretty badly beat up...her left eye was swollen like a freakin basketball

apparently the guy is a very dangerous criminal (possibly still armed), and police are looking around the eastern side of vic

[Ronin 09]

they reckon he's fled the state already...

[adam-__-]

They're searching all of East Coast Australia. So if he did go interstate, hopefully police interstate will notice him.

RIP to the lawyer.
