This might be something else I missed in this discussion or elsewhere on the OT, but I just read about this couple who tried to stop the shooter after seeing him with gun after getting out of car with an ISIS flag and ended up dying together on the sidewalk.

quote:

Harrowing video shows an Australian couple heroically trying to take down one of the Bondi Beach terrorists — before both were shot and left to die in each other’s arms just weeks before the 35th wedding anniversary.

Boris Gurman, 69, and his 61-year-old wife, Sofia, tried to thwart one of the gunmen after they spotted the rifle-toting terrorist emerging from a car draped with a homemade ISIS flag before the deadly rampage began on Sunday, the Sydney Morning Herald reported.

The dramatic dashcam footage shows Boris courageously tackling the terrorist, Sajid Akram, on the street and wrestling away the gun as Sofia runs to help.

Boris is then filmed pointing the rifle at the mass killer in a frantic attempt to make him retreat — only for the terrorist to grab another rifle.

The couple, who lived in Bondi and had been married 34 years, were ultimately executed at close range.




There is a screenshot from drone footage showing them together on the sidewalk at the link below. It’s sad. Sorry if this has been posted already, but between life, the multiple big news happenings, and trying to take breaks from reading or seeing videos about so much death I am just seeing this now.

Rest in peace Sofia and Boris Gurman
