Belgium: Guy With Mental Health Issues and Drug Problem Murders Four, Including Two Policemen, During Ramadan Celebrations


From the BBC:
A man has shot dead two police officers and a nearby driver in the eastern Belgian city of Liège. 
The gunman took a female cleaner hostage at a school before being killed by police. 
Two other police officers were also injured. 
The man's motive is not yet clear but terror prosecutors are looking after the case. Police sources quoted in local media said the man was heard shouting "Allahu Akbar" ("God is greatest" in Arabic). 
"There are elements that point in the direction that this is a terrorist act," Eric Van Der Sypt, spokesman for the Belgian federal prosecutor's office, told the AFP news agency.
From the Guardian:
A gunman has killed two police officers and a passerby before being shot dead in the centre of the Belgian city of Liège, public broadcaster RTBF has said. 
La Libre Belgique newspaper quoted a police source as saying the gunman shouted Allahu Akbar – “God is greatest” in Arabic – and had taken a woman hostage at some point in the attack. 
The national anti-terrorist crisis centre, which interior minister Jan Jambon said was monitoring the situation, said terrorism could not be excluded as a motive though it was also looking into other possible reasons. “It is one of the questions on the table, but for the moment all scenarios are open,” a spokesman for the crisis centre said.
