Witnesses claim he entered the centre armed with a gun and knife, said very little if anything but spewed bullets as he passed through the facility. Armed police who attended the child care centre scene found bodies scattered across classrooms, play areas and hallways, in what can only be described as a wanton attack on all and everyone he came in contact with. Emergency services attended from various points around the region, aiding those injured but mainly covering the corpses of the dead, as parents of those dead youngsters raced the school and were not prevented from entering. At least another dozen are said to be in critical condition and currently under hospital supervision. While no motive has been so far given for the attack, the ex-cop was due to face a court hearing on charges relating to the trafficking of drugs.
