The unforgettable footage of the female NSW Police officer running towards danger captured how selfless emergency personnel can be depended upon to save us in our hour of need.
On Saturday, as reports started emerging about the Bondi Junction mass stabbing, across Sydney people started phoning or texting to reassure loved ones and friends they were safe. Like a pebble sending ripples across a pond, when sudden catastrophe strikes, the fragility of our lives binds us all.
Bondi Junction attack victims Dawn Singleton, 25; Pikria Darchia, 55; Jade Young, 47; Ashlee Good, 38; and Faraz Tahir, 30. Scott is a hero whose action saved lives. “Bondi Junction was the scene of shocking violence, but it was also witness to the humanity and the heroism of our fellow Australians, our brave police, our first responders and of course everyday people who could never have imagined that they would face such a moment,” Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said on Sunday.
So police on Saturday battled to save victims’ lives and fearlessly attempted to secure the area as confusion reigned. But in addition to police and paramedic responses, Bondi Junction also saw ordinary people step up as the killer took the lives of five women and one man and seriously wounded eight, including a baby.
