manifestations par les immigres dans les rues ou l'attentat s'est passe - etc
white fella let off a gun and killed three Kurds as they sat in a cafe. He has been arrested with minor injuries. Already known to the police
Immigrant demosin support ( of the victim) or against ( violence towards immigrants)
