The boy attack stabbed another man in an incident police said had the "hallmarks" of terrorism but was yet to be declared a terrorist act.

Western Australia police shot dead a "radicalized" 16-year-old boy on Saturday night after he stabbed a man in Perth. 

State Premier Roger Cook said the teenager attacked a man and then "rushed" at police officers, armed with a kitchen knife. 

The police responded by shooting him twice with Tasers before firing a single fatal shot.

Uh huh. Or you're just making up bullshit to obscure the very simple fact that the article features some officer claims in quote marks and other officer claims in no quote marks, which is not actually standard practice or taught in any high school.
