Brisbane's lockdown crisis

What a shock to see on facebook from a friend's post about Brisbane Queen Street Mall.  I just had to turn on the TV to see the breaking news on TV myself but this seige just ended by the time I turned on the TV.

Not sure if this breaking news will be seen on your TV news internationally but this event only happened this morning in Brisbane City mall.  For further information go to http://au.news.yahoo.com/queensland/a /-/newshome/16326128/gunman-forces-city-mall-to-be-locked-down/
 
Parts of the city remains cordoned off after a nearly two hour siege involving a 20 yo male with a police record. The gunmen has now been caught and arrested.
 
Not in my wildest dreams I would imagine the Queen Street Mall would have a serious lockdown event.  I grew up visiting this mall many times over the years. I guess no place is really a safe environment anymore.
