At least four people have been killed in a suspected stabbing incident in Westfield Bondi Junction, an eastern suburb of Sydney, local media reported on Saturday.

New South Wales police have confirmed that a “critical incident” took place following the shooting of an unidentified man in the area. They added that officers scrambled to the scene after receiving reports of multiple people being stabbed.

“People are urged to avoid the area,” they said.

While police did not provide any details on the number of casualties, the Sydney Morning Herald reported, citing sources, that at least four people were killed, with “many more” in critical condition.

Disturbing footage from the scene shows what appears to be a man armed with a knife chasing mallgoers. Other images from the area appear to show the suspect neutralized by the police.

Other videos appear to show two victims of the attack lying on the floor, with officers working to revive one of them.
