A 28-year-old Australian terrorist has opened fire at a mosque in New Zealand, shooting at children and killing at least 40 people.
Witnesses reported hearing as many as 50 shots from his weapons including a semi-automatic shotgun and a rifle at Al Noor Mosque in Christchurch on the country's South Island.
The gunman - who identified himself on Twitter as Brenton Tarrant from Grafton, New South Wales - live-streamed the mass shooting inside the Al Noor Mosque, which happened about 1.30pm (11.30am AEDT) as Friday prayers were underway. (Daily Mail)
