New Zealand police kill 'terrorist' after he stabs 6 people

BY , Sep 3, 2021 4:37 PM - REPORT AN ERROR

New Zealand authorities were so worried about an extremist inspired by global terror groups they were following him around-the-clock.

They were able to shoot and kill the man within 60 seconds of him unleashing a frenzied knife attack on shoppers in a supermarket.

New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says that three of six people who were stabbed were seriously injured.

Ardern says the man was a Sri Lankan national who was inspired by the Islamic State group.
