Let's keep the promotion of and sympathy for anti-vax nonsense off here, thanks.

A shocking video has emerged of a Bishop being stabbed in a Sydney church during a live stream just days after the horrific stabbings in Bondi that claimed seven lives, including the stabber.

Reports indicate that at about 7pm on Monday, Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel was horrifically attacked while delivering mass to the Good Shepard Church in Wakeley.

In the horrific video, a man dressed in black nonchalantly walks up to the Bishop and is then frantically stabbed in the face and body while shocked onlookers try to intervene.

Blood-curdling screams from parishioners can be heard before the live stream is dramatically cut.

A NSW Police spokesperson confirmed an incident was in progress in Wakeley but that it was too early to provide more information.

Plenty of footage on Twitter. Just straight up walked up and started attacking the Bishop.

WTF is wrong with some people

 

[BFew]

Good at least to have NSW Police reporting that none of the stabbing injuries are life threatening.

The video clip is quite confronting, the attacker is using some kind of small knife and there is no blood. Hopefully the Bishop and helper members of his flock will be okay.

The audacity to do it live for world to see

The audacity to do it live for world to see

I don't think the attacker live streamed it, the church was livestreaming the service.

 

[Bostonian]

I mean WTF. The Assyrians never bother anyone.

 

[Bont the Lord]

What the hell is going on?

 

[Kurve]

Crowds have gathered outside the church and things are getting a bit wild.

 

[Paul Kersey]

WTF.

 

[BFew]

Thankfully ABC TV has elected not to show the video of the stabbing part of the stabbing video in their ABC Live News TV channel.
And they have provided absolutely no info on the attacker.

If it's confirmed Muslim attacker might start religious chaos unfortunately

As if there is not enough of that already.

Don't watch the vid of the stabbing is the advice in the below.
It's highly disturbing.

Hopefully not.

That would be the very reason why the Assyrians came to Australia in the first place. To get away from that division.

 

[gunbarrelstraight91]

Having been a former resident of south western Sydney, I’d be lying if I said I was surprised about this happening one day.

It was at an Assyrian Church.
So probably mostly people with origins of Iraq, Iran, Syria, Turkey and Lebanon.

Who are all Christians.

 

[FruitTingles]

Always a worry when an incident like Bondi happens that you get other unstable individuals who want to be copycats.

 

[Kurve]

The riot squad has attended.

 

[BFew]

Riot Police are on the scene.
At least 150 Police called out.
The crowd is thinking the perpetrator is still inside the Church and were jumping the fence to the Church and trying to break in.
At least one officer injured.
Police cars damaged.

'Four people stabbed at western Sydney church as riot erupts on the street'​

'9:49PM APRIL 15, 2024

'Riot police have arrived at a church in western Sydney where hundreds of people have flocked following the shock stabbing of an Assyrian preacher on Monday night, as capsicum spray is deployed and the street descends into mayhem.'

'Parts of Liverpool Hospital have been placed on lockdown after at least one of the stabbing victims was transported there on Monday night.
Dozens of police arrived at the church around 8.30pm, with some forced to deploy capsicum spray as the street spiralled out of control. At least 150 officers have been called to the scene.

One officer has been injured, and transported to an ambulance with a bandage on his head and blood on his chest.

The crowd chanted “bring him out” as a man emerged from the church holding a large cross. It is unclear whether the offender is still inside the church.

The window of a police car has been smashed in. The group have thrown projectiles, as parked cars block people from moving through the area....'

The Daily Tele is reporting 2000 people surrounding the Church.
