Six people are dead after a stabbing attack at a large mall in Sydney, Australia, but the attacker has been shot dead. Chaos ensued after 40-year-old Joel Cauchi came into the Westfield Bondi Junction mall wielding a long, dangerous blade and immediately started to fatally stab the surrounding crowd. He seems to have been targeting women, as five of the six victims were women. Multiple people were also injured, including a baby whose mother was killed, and the nine-month-old infant is still in the hospital. However, before he could stab anyone else, a single officer, Inspector Amy Scott, rushed into the area and quickly killed the attacker using her gun as he raised his knife towards her. She is being hailed across the country for her brave actions that may have helped saved the lives of many other people within the mall. Officials stated that the tragedy was most likely related to the attacker's poor mental health, and an investigation is now underway.
