Trouble at the Mall. Westfield Belconnen targeted.

Hopefully he will now start to get some of the mental health support and help he clearly needs. It’s a pity people have to act out their troubles before they can start to get the help and support they need. At least no-one was hurt by his actions.

Perhaps. Or it’s possible that he’s just an ar$ehole.

For example, I lived on a street where a bunch of wheelie bins (including mine) were set on fire for no apparent reason one night. Non mentally ill people are quite capable of doing this sort of thing just to have a bit of a giggle.

Whatever the reason, I’m glad he’s helping the police with their enquiries.

Why would someone do this?

Perhaps someone offended by the sheer horribleness and inhumanity of malls?

I’d never condone acts like that, but I can understand the sentiment.

Do you know this person?

Ah, that explains why I saw the police walking around chatting to security after lunch then…

A 29-year-old Evatt man is assisting police with enquiries.

This usually means they think he did it but haven’t charged ’em yet. What do the police say when someone actually IS helping with enquiries?

Like a Belco version of a young Sherlock Holmes.

I was leaning more towards a gang of ragamuffin young crime solving kids (with a cute dog), Enid Blyton style.

Weird indeed. I was convinced it was bored school kids.

Either part of a very elaborate Ocean’s Eleven style robbery (possible involving several Minis), or else they guy forgot to wear his tinfoil hat the the reptoids took control of his brain again.
