Lots of unconfirmed stuff on social media, but this looks rather accurate...
OTTAWA - A Canadian soldier standing guard at the National War Memorial in Ottawa has been shot by an unknown gunman and there are reports of gunfire inside the halls of Parliament. Ottawa police confirmed they had a call at 9:52 a.m. with a report of shots fired. The gunman reportedly ran towards Parliament Hill, which is currently under lockdown. Emergency responders are still on the scene and paramedics are performing CPR on soldier. The incident comes just two days after two Canadian soldiers were run over — and one of them killed — in Quebec by a man with jihadist sympathies.

Not terrorism I am sure. Maybe workplace violence perhaps? Prayers for the soldier.

They only understand one thing. When are we going to wake up and win this. Anything else I have to say would get me a timeout.

Witness said man had a long rifle, dark coat, wearing what was described as a Middle Eastern scarf covering his face. |

If the gunman is caught he will be given no quarter and be shot dead.
Just like that jihad convert the other day. Things might get a bit interesting here now that Canada has sent an F-18 contingent to the M.E. to specifically kill ISIS. GO GET SOME !!! |

Looks like this isn't over yet:
Parliament Hill's Centre Block is in lockdown after shots were fired in the building and a soldier standing guard at the National War Memorial was shot. (Follow The Globe's Josh Wingrove (@josh_wingrove) for updates.) The shooter at the war memorial was last seen running toward Parliament Hill. An eyewitness described the suspect as carrying what appeared to be a rifle. View Quote Prayers for the soldier's recovery, his family, and his comrade's aim when taking down whoever shot him. |
