4 wounded by police firing on crazy man with a knife.

When only criminals and the police have guns.

Sarcasm off.

Can you imagine how much trouble a private citizen (one of us) would be in if we hit four bystanders?

Heard on the Beeb:
Only 2 shots fired, both struck guy with the knife. Unfortunately they were through and through, 3 bystanders injured by fragments after bullets struck paving in courtyard.
The knife wielding loon, was on a release from a NSW mental health facility.
