    A gun and grenade attack in the centre of the Belgian city

    Wow people are crazy and getting crazier

    Witnesses say a man in his 40s threw grenades at a bus stop in Place Saint Lambert, a busy square. At least two other men are thought to be involved.

    Reports say one of the attackers is among the dead. Local media say another has been detained, while a third is involved in a stand-off with police.

    It is not clear who the attackers are.

    There are reports of a fourth man escaping the scene.

    TV images showed blood splattered across the cobblestones.

    Medical staff are said to be attending to some of the injured in the courthouse.

    Seven of them are in a serious condition, and doctors at a city hospital are trying to save the life of an 18-month-old boy injured in the attack.

          Clearly Belgium needs stricter grenade laws.

          (On a serious note, horrific event, very sad to see )

              I really hope you're being sarcastic. Fuck me, you can't be that uninformed.

              So far, 4 dead - 75 wounded.

              One of the dead is the purpetrator himself. Apparently he's thrown grenades, shot with an AK-47, and supposedly shot himself through the head afterwards.

                  The guy had already been sentenced for illegal possesion of weapons and drug trafficking. Today he was also required to show up for an interview regarding another case.

                      Witnesses to the gun and grenade attack in the Belgian city of Liege have described scenes of panic in the main square, near a busy Christmas Market.

                      Nicolas Gimenne, a journalist at local newspaper La Meuse, had spent the morning reporting on court proceedings inside the courthouse on the square.

                      Heading out to get something to eat, he was close to the Point Chaud bakery when he saw a man on the roof, just a short distance away.

                      "I had the impression he was throwing a round object at the coach station below," Mr Gimenne told La Meuse.
                      Continue reading the main story


                      I saw death close up”

                      Nicolas Gimenne Journalist

                      "I looked up in the noise and commotion and the man grabbed another object and removed the pin from it.

                      "Like a magistrate who was just in front of me, I began to run to get away. For a few seconds I didn't understand, couldn't believe, what was happening."

                      Mr Gimenne went into a department store where people were sheltering at the back, as security forces moved into the square.

                      "I passed within 4-5 metres of the attacker," he said. "I saw death close up."

                        I read first about it on GeenStijl, some people commenting from Belgium wrote there was a terrorist attack alert yesterday in Belgium, and jumped to conclusions after today's event.

                        Just another individual going nuts under pressure of a fucked up society.

                          Your mistake there is that you read GS

                          And indeed, they now believe it was an individual, not a group.
