A single unit police inspector killed the Sydney mall attacker on level five of the Bondi Junction Westfield shopping center, according to New South Wales Police's Assistant Commissioner Anthony Cooke.
Cooke told reporters that the inspector was nearby and in the local area. She was a senior police inspector who was alone and engaged with the attacker when she was on the scene.
She shot the offender when he raised a knife at her.
“She discharged her firearm, and that person is now deceased,” Cooke said.
The same officer was also seen in videos on social media administering CPR to those who had been injured.
