Physinews Reports: Yesterday We Reported How Eight People Was Stabbed in MINNESOTA SHOPPING ,
As at Today's Reports, Islamic State has claimed responsibility for
an attack in a Minnesota shopping centre in
which eight people were stabbed.
The IS-linked news agency, Amaq, released
a statement insisting the attacker, who was
wearing a security guard's uniform, was a
"soldier of the Islamic State".
Speaking shortly after Saturday evening's
attack at the Crossroads Center in St
Cloud, police chief Blair Anderson said the
attacker had "made some references to
Allah".
He added: "We have confirmed that he asked
at least one person if they were Muslim
before he assaulted them."
The FBI say they are investigating the
incident as a "potential act of terrorism".
The suspect was shot dead by an off-duty
officer from another police force and
his identity has not yet been
officially released.
Mr Anderson said police are still investigating
what happened, adding: "Whether that was a
terrorist attack or not, I'm not willing to say
that right now because we just don't know.
"We will be diligent and get to the bottom of
this.
"Starting tomorrow, things won't be the same
here."
He said the suspect, who was armed with a
knife and wearing a private security firm
uniform, was known to police in St Cloud but
only through minor driving offences.
They have "no reason to believe" anyone
else was involved in the attacks, which took
place in several parts of the shopping centre,
including corridors, businesses and common
areas.
