Four people reportedly injured in a Sydney shopping centre knife confrontation:

It is believed police shot a 23-year-old man wielding a knife at least three times after a stabbing.

It is understood as many as four people have suffered injuries, including to their lower limbs and abdomen. They range from serious to critical.

Local businessman Geoff Milner saw the attacker walking through the lunchtime market stalls holding a knife.

“I saw this old couple staring at him and that’s when I realised he had a full knife,” he said.

Mr Milner said police arrived shortly after.

“When I walked out of the cafe he was just standing there, like he was waiting for them.”

Early reports indicated the attacker was alive following the police response. More to come.

UPDATE. Seven’s Robert Ovadia reports the man was heard shouting “Allahu Akhbar”.

UPDATE II:

Assistant Commissioner Denis Clifford said the armed man was known to police and had been reported missing from a nearby psychiatric centre yesterday.

“It will be alleged the man approached police with a large carving knife, the officers each fired shots at the offender and he was wounded several times,” he said.

UPDATE III. A witness reports:

Mr Yeom said he believed three shots were fired and it appeared police were aiming for the man’s legs.

Police are frequently forced to make the same tough choice. In March, a Melbourne police officer told an inquest he thought he was going to be beheaded by a radicalised teenager before a colleague shot the knife-wielding 18-year-old.
The federal officer, known only as Officer B, has told an inquest into the 2014 death of Numan Haider that his fellow policeman saved his life when he fired.
“If (Officer A) had not fired the shot I am sure that Haider would have cut my throat and cut my head off,” Officer B said in his statement to the inquest on Thursday.
Both officers said they had no doubt Haider’s intention was to kill as he lunged at them with a knife outside the Endeavour Hills Police Station on September 23, 2014.
