'Obvious' Sydney killer targeted women – police
Five of the six people who died were women. Several others, including a baby, were injured.
The New South Wales police commissioner told Australia’s ABC News that it was “obvious” Mr Cauchi focused on women.
The man killed was security guard Faraz Tahir, 30, who tried to intervene in the attack.
“The videos speak for themselves, don’t they?” commissioner Karen Webb told ABC News Breakfast.
“It’s obvious to me, it’s obvious to detectives… that the offender focused on women and avoided the men.
“We don’t know what was operating in the mind of the offender and that’s why it’s important now that detectives spend so much time interviewing those who know him.”
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese on Monday also told ABC News “the gender breakdown is, of course, concerning”.
