http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/parliament-hill-attacked-soldier-shot-at-national-war-memorial-in-ottawa-1.2808710

im watching it live, a soldier was shot, then he highjacked a car, drove up to the Parliament building and ran in, they cornered and shot him, but shooting is still happening as of this post. someone else was grazed by a bullet.  I lived a 5 minute walk away from here for a year and a half until recently. Possible connection to 2 soldiers being hit by a car in Quebec 2 days ago.  it is unclear as to how many people/guns are involved.

This is terrible; they are reporting that the soldier who was killed was a reservist from Hamilton, Ont. This is the second attack towards Canadian soldiers/public recently.

I always remember feeling the same pride when I was on Parliament Hill as a young child to even last summer as an adult - you can just walk up to Parliament; it was always to symbol of freedom to this country. With all that has happened, I hope that Canadians do not get intimidated and restrict this access to Parliament.

@jitz and I follow each other on twitter. He posted earlier today that he was in lockdown at Uottawa, wasn't really sure what that was about at the time but I get it now.

Hey guys, so there was a shooting a stones throw away from my class today. Security had the door locked and furniture barricading the entrance, lights off, blinds closed and total silence for about 4 hours. I just made it home. Very freaky ****.

Heard about this at work. I was told there was 3 shooters. One got killed, one got arrested and one escaped. I don't know if that's true or not. But regardless; wild ****.
