Western Australia police shot dead a "radicalized" 16-year-old boy on Saturday night after he stabbed a man in Perth.
State Premier Roger Cook said the teenager attacked a man and then "rushed" at police officers, armed with a kitchen knife.
The police responded by shooting him twice with Tasers before firing a single fatal shot.

Because the cops got a tip from a Muslim about a teen who at one point used the internet?
Uhh...?
Nah, I think it was the part where he stabbed a dude and then rushed at the cops afterwards.
Not just stabbed. Attack stabbed.
A stabbing is a stabbing. It's not terrorism, and the article provided no evidence of any "radicalization".
Media literacy?
He appears to have been radicalized. This other source shows his message that he posted to other people before the attack.
"Peace be upon the Messenger of God. May his peace, mercy, and blessings be upon you," he wrote in Arabic.
"Brothers please forgive me for any time I have wronged you, I am going in the path of jihad tonight for the sake of Allah Azzawajal," he then continued in English.
"I am a soldier of the Mujahideen of Al-Qaeda and take responsibility for the actions …
"If you have any illegal or jihadi things online or in real life please make sure to hide them."
Thanks for the better source
But was he brown? Then he was 100% terrorism. Else mental disorder.
He looks white to me. White people can be terrorists too.
I don't know, seems like an unfortunately common health crisis.
But "terrorism" sure gets clicks.
