Notes while watching tv news conferance....Police media conferance... police still at scene. .. Joint Counter Terrorism Team had invited individual to attend the station to discuss matters .. it is believed altercation occured near station. The person produced a weapon, stabbed the AFP multiple times . Stabbed the Vic police officer who then shot the perpetrator... both officers in stable condition and both also suffering shock.... Police were unaware he was armed..he surprised them by producing knife and attacking...police currently believe that individual was acting alone...police had no option other than to take the actions that they did...police not in position to comment on motivation of attack... there is intelligence to suggest individual had been waving ISIS flag about ... there were several matters needed to discuss with him... he had been under their attention/surveillance.... information is lifeblood of security and safety... everyone needs to contact crime stoppers or security if something doesnt look right or if someone is acting oddly.... it appears at this stage he was acting on his own... the individual was invited to station as there was something that needed to be addressed. Individual attended station on his own. Incident occured during initial greeting by police.... reporters have asked why the bomb squad is involved and onsite, police skirting around answer...... they encourage everyone to be alert..
