Just seen it on Sky News - many shots did they fire to take down one guy.
Reminds me of Private Eye article after the SAS took out three IRA members on Gibraltar.
Q : "Why did you shoot him 16 times"
A : "Ran out of bullets...."
Sadly one hostage killed...

An opinion piece in the Herald Sun attacks what it calls the "despicable rubberneckers who took selfies and socked back beers and wine while they gawked at the Martin Place siege 100 metres away."
"Lingering just so you can tweet a pic of yourself to your mates, or worse to grab a few coldies and settle in to watch the utter horror unfold like it's a movie at the cinema, is just deplorable," it adds.
