The injured were evacuated to hospital, but their lives would not be in danger. “At first the gunshots looked like fireworks,” witness Erik Thompson said. “Then we started to hear whistles near our ears, it was the bullets coming towards us.” ” We didn’t know what to do what to do, it was pretty surreal. Two policemen were near us, sheltered behind their service car. They drew their weapons. “
