    We going the religion of peace, or Harold? Real potential for either in Austria.

    I know it's been worse, but the world really is an amazing place at the moment.

    Presumably it’ll get downplayed again by the media for fear of offending anyone.

    It looks like a militant bender based on him mincing through the security footage.

    It's like Frank Spencer doing a Columbine.

    I suppose the ISIS forums have been buzzing this year with the entirety of the western world locked down off and on for 9 months.

    Weird one, they usually go down firing.

    The only answer there is to blow their brains out as soon as they put their hands on their heads.

    I can appreciate the thinking behind it, but probably not. I think martyrdom only helps their cause.

    But if they walk out alive, some clever sod in the intelligence services reckons they can turn them into an asset.

    I could hear the shots from my apartment even though I live about 2km away from the crime scene. It's all a bit weird at the moment.

    Yikes, hope you're alright.

    More importantly, get out there and start filming, it could be the next Gary Speed for TTH.

    They've cordoned off all the access roads, so I wouldn't get very far. A couple of friends are still locked into various restaurants because the police won't let anyone go home. Scary stuff.

    Number of victims/perpetrators still unclear, though as far as I understand they think that at least one of the gunmen is still at large.

    It's been confirmed that the one gunman whom police managed to kill wore some sort of suicide belt that they're currently trying to defuse.

    If reports are accurate and we are talking about two men with rifles, plenty of ammunition as well as explosives then this could have been a lot worse, as bad as it is (one civilian dead, seven seriously injured).

    Four dead now, five if you include the terrorist. IS-'affinity' confirmed, apparently. The explosive belt was a dummy, according to police.

    No compulsory school attendance today in Vienna. They still think there might be other perpetrators around, though they won't say how many.

    I wonder if this was actually planned for yesterday or if the lockdown starting today forced their hand.

    If BBC News is anything to go by, there isn't an Austrian in the world that doesn't have a ridiculous voice.

    Correct. They are like the Scotland of Germany. Toto Wolff has a cracker.
