Australian police said on Monday they have begun a probe into why a 40 year old man who was mentally ill appeared to target women as he terrorized a Sydney shopping mall with a large knife.
In the attack, five of the six people killed, and most of those injured, were females. Videos showed a man pursuing mostly females as he rampaged through the Westfield shopping complex in Bondi Junction in Australia's largest city on Saturday.
The Prime Minister of Australian said "the gender breakdown... was concerning."
