Darkon84 Posted 13 December 2011 Posted 13 December 2011 A gun and grenade attack in the centre of the Belgian city of Liege has killed at least two people and wounded about 25, Belgian media say. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-16161746 A gun and grenade attack in the centre of the Belgian city of Liege has killed at least two people and wounded about 25, Belgian media say. They say several men threw grenades and fired on a crowd at a bus stop in Place Saint Lambert, a busy square. Some reports say one of the attackers is among the dead. Local media said another had been seized by police but gunfire was continuing. The area has been sealed off. There is no word on who carried out the attack. More to come as the day goes on I expect. Cant even begin to imagine the level of fear and panic those people felt/are feeling.
Brainy Posted 13 December 2011 Posted 13 December 2011 I think i'll stick to the idea of Silverstone then next year instead of going to Spa for the F1. We'd have been staying in Liege

We'd have been staying in Liege That's like saying you're gonna stop driving or being a passenger in the car just because there was a huge car crash on a motorway not so long ago. As HH said, bizarre rationale.
MikeyT Posted 13 December 2011 Posted 13 December 2011 Bloody nut cases every where. Hope the people affected by this are all okay.
Tielemans63 Posted 13 December 2011 Posted 13 December 2011 Just heard about this on the radio - 5Live reckon that as many as 75 people have been injured. Makes you wonder why these nutters are allowed to be set free again when they're clearly unhinged. There seems to be much confusion, even between eye witnesses as to whether it was one guy or a gang.
Music Junkie Posted 13 December 2011 Posted 13 December 2011 Belgium of all places, though. It seems like a nice quiet place!

As HH said, bizarre rationale. Well actually it was 99% more likely I wouldnt be going to Belgium anyway, it was just an excuse to say. Is that ok sir?

BoneDog Posted 13 December 2011 Posted 13 December 2011 Local media was reporting earlier that the guy responsible already had a record for illegal gun possession and growing canabis. Not sure if that's true or not. How can you stop these kind of things from happening without sending cruise missiles onto all the gun factories?
