Incident happened in Los Angeles — Hollywood, at the intersection of Sunset Blvd, & Vine. And according to witnesses he was yelling the islamic chant Allahu Akbar while shooting people.
An eyewitness clearly stated that he heard the gunman shouting "Alahu Akbar" as he shot.
Here’s the link to the channel 5 report. . the witness’ statement is at 2:37 on the clip.
The video does not support the text. The Telegraph is slipping.
Dude's name was Tyler Brehm. Link. He was apparently distraught over breaking up with his girlfriend. If Allah was there, he definitely chose to hide his presence.
You have redundantly repeated yourself.
OK. One excitable, obviously foreign-born witness quoting him as shouting Allahu Akbar!
. But there are no other witnesses and no information linking the guy to jihad. I don't buy it. If the witness is accurate, it could easily be he just shouted it for effect, perhaps having seen some jihadi clips on YouTube. I would need evidence of his prior interest in Islam to set any store by the account of a single witness.
only in those vids, but, if ONE heard it, there were others
