Incident is accident that happens to look like a possible terrorist attack, or is obviously intended to draw same emergency response as a terrorist attack. Also includes incidents in which terrorist status is disputed whether motive is mental illness or a political cause such as Fort Hood or 2014 Sydney hostage crisis December 2014 when a lone gunman, Man Haron Monis, held hostage ten customers and eight employees of a Lindt chocolate café. Perpetrator usually claims to be or has history of mental problems, or is intoxicated on drugs or alcohol, but has no evidence of actual political motives or connection to certified terrorist organization. Does not include hoax bomb threats or false shooter reports but an actual actor.
