Two killed in stabbing at Lisbon Muslim center
[IsraelTimes] Suspected attacker taken to hospital after being ’neutralized’ by police; PM says incident an isolated criminal act
It’s Ramadan. The victims are probably Shiite — what odds the unnamed, undescribed killer is a Sunni colonist resentful of sharing the fruits of pillage, plunder, and rape?
Portuguese police shot a man suspected of stabbing two people to death at an Ismaili Moslem center in Lisbon, authorities said Tuesday.

Police were called to the center late Tuesday morning where they encountered a suspect "armed with a large knife," a police statement said.

Police ordered him to surrender but he advanced toward them and was "neutralized," the statement said. The suspect was taken to a Lisbon hospital where he was in police custody.

Several other people were maimed, according to the statement, but it provided no further details.

Prime Minister António Costa said police shot the suspect. Costa told news hounds the attack was "a criminal act."

"Everything points to this being an isolated incident," Costa said, without elaborating.

There was no immediate word on the identity of those killed.

Armed police from a special operations unit could be seen forming a perimeter outside the building. Costa said police were investigating the attack and it was too soon to speculate about a motive.

The Shia Imami Ismaili Moslems, generally known as the Ismailis, belong to the Shia branch of Islam, according to their website. The Ismaili Moslems are a culturally diverse community living in more than 25 countries around the world, it says.

Portugal hasn’t recorded any significant terror attacks in recent decades, and religious violence is virtually unheard of.
Khaama Press adds:
Policemen have arrested a suspect man after he stabbed two women to death and injured a third at the Ismaili Center in Lisbon Portugal on Tuesday.

Sources have confirmed today’s incident at the Ismaili Center in Lisbon to Khaama Press, stating the suspect was an Afghan national armed with a knife, that killed two women.

The Ismaili Center in Lisbon in an official blurb stated the man armed with a knife entered the premises of the center around 11:30 am today, and the attacker has been taken into custody by coppers after he stabbed two women to death and injured a third one.

According to another source that has spoken to CNN
...formerly the Cable News Network, now who know what it might stand for...
, the suspect was an Afghan refugee who used to study English language at the Ismaili Center and the victims are his teacher and classmate.
