According to someone on another Site,it was one Nut,known to Police that perpetrated the Attack!
So far no Evidence of any connection with Terrorists! The post from that Board: "Latest update from several sources here is that it's an attack by a single perpetrator, apparently a weapon freak and known by police and justice. He was out on parole. There are no links with terrorist organizations or the Pakistani honor-killing trial that took place earlier. No apparent motive was found yet." |

Reports: 2 dead in hand grenade attack in Belgium APAP – 5 hrs ago * * * Share0 BRUSSELS (AP) — Belgian news organizations are reporting that two people have been killed and at least 10 wounded Tuesday in a hand grenade attack in the eastern Belgian city of Liege. Belgian media reported that one of the two dead was believed to be the assailant, a man believed to be about 40 years old. New reports said that at about 12:30 local time (6:30 a.m. EDT) the man lobbed several grenades at a bus shelter in Place Saint-Lambert, a busy downtown square. They said witnesses reported four explosions and gun fire. Phone calls to Liege authorities were not immediately answered. Belgium's VRT television network spoke with an unidentified man who was wounded in the attack and who said "someone threw grenades and fired shots." Police were on the scene quickly and sealed off the square. TV images showed blood splattered across the cobblestones. Valerie Schaaps, a spokeswoman for the prosecutors office, confirmed there had been explosions and gunfire, and that there were injuries. The daily La Meuse reported that the attacker had killed himself. Place Saint-Lambert is a busy crossroads: every day 1800 buses serve the square, which leads to downtown shopping streets. http://news.yahoo.com/reports-2-dead-hand-grenade-attack-belgium-123430168.html |

I meant Fox, CNN, BSNBC the big timers! No, but an attack in Europe always makes for good sensationalism though. |
