Two Suspects Killed, Guard Shot 'Draw Muhammad' Contest in Texas
BY WILLIAM J. GORTA
Two suspects were killed and a security guard was shot outside a "Draw Muhammad" contest in Garland, Texas, police told NBC News.
مقتل شخصين مشتبه بهما اصابة حارس امن بسبب اطلاق النار على مسابقة رسم محمد
It was initially thought a police officer had been shot, but the victim was later confirmed to be a security guard. He suffered an unspecified non-life-threatening injury and was released from the hospital several hours later. The event was heavily policed with up to 40 extra officers assigned at a cost of $10,000 to the organizers, according to published reports.
في البداية كان يعتقد ان المصاب شرطي لكن اتضح في مابعد ان المصاب هو من الحرس. اصابة الحارس لا تعتبر خطيرة.
The contest was described as a "free speech" event by its sponsor, the American Freedom Defense Initiative. It offered a $10,000 top prize and featured Dutch politician Geert Wilders, who is known for his anti-Muslim views, as its speaker.
"This is a war. This is war on free speech. What are we going to do? Are we going to surrender to these monsters?" Pamela Geller, the executive director of the American Freedom Defense Initiative, wrote on her website. "The war is here."
The shooting began about 7 p.m., around the time the event was finishing up.
اطلاق النار تم على الساعة السابعة مساء على موعد انتهاء السهرة
"Right when we were beginning to drive away, we heard gunshots," Cynthia Belisle, who attended the event with a friend, told NBC News. "We thought they were fireworks, but they were not."
Belisle said that dozens of cops sprang into action and that she was told to stay put.
She said she heard a second round of shooting and saw police rushing toward the far end of the parking lot with arms drawn.
"We were scared," she said.
Garland police spokesman Joe Harn said that the area was evacuated and that participants were being taken away from the scene on buses.
A bomb squad robot was checking on a suspicious car Sunday night, he said.
The arena, owned by the Garland school district, hosted a "Stand WIth the Prophet" event in January. It held that event as well as the "Draw Muhammad" event because it has a non-discriminatory policy, according to The Dallas Morning News.
