Sydney knife attacker identified by police


A nine-month-old baby was among several others injured and remained in a “serious but stable” condition on Sunday, police said.

Authorities say the attack was most likely “related to the mental health of the individual involved”.

In an update on Sunday, New South Wales Police Assistant Commissioner Anthony Cooke said they were still trying to notify families of the victims.

“Two of them appear to have no family in Australia,” he told reporters.

He said Mr Cauchi, who was from Queensland, was previously known to police and had bought a storage unit in Sydney.

The assistant commissioner reiterated that the attacker did not appear to be motivated by “any particular ideology or motivation”.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said Australians were “waking up to try to deal with the shock and trauma” of what had happened.
