　　警方告诉记者，上午9点52分，他们接到多个报警电话，称议会大厦附近发生了枪击案。当时，议会的三个主要党派正在召开每周例会。这表明，袭击可能被故意安排在了众多议员的工作时间。许多议员立即被警卫带到了位于地下的安全屋中。

But the normallycongested streets were otherwise ghostlike. As the hours passed, the police extended theirperimeter of closed roads ensnaring the core in a ring of gridlock.

　　在第一轮枪声响起几小时后，载着全副武装的警察的车队仍在急速驶入事发区域，看来是为了查明这里是否存在其他持枪歹徒。不过除此以外，以往熙熙攘攘的街道空无一人。数小时过后，警方扩大了道路的封锁范围，导致中心地带出现拥堵。
