Another one with nothing to lose going off "pop"....Liege also happens to be a past hot-spot of ritual sexual abuse, paedophile rings and rampant police corruption. Connection? Perhaps, perhaps not. Questions and more questions...

A man armed with grenades and an assault rifle attacked holiday
shoppers Tuesday at a central square in the Belgian city of Liege,
leaving at least four people dead and wounding 75, officials said.
Belgian
officials identified him as Norodine Amrani, 33, a Liege resident who
they said had done jail time for offenses involving guns, drugs and
sexual abuse. He was among the dead, but Liege Prosecutor Danielle
Reynders told reporters it was unclear if he committed suicide or died
by accident. He did not die at the hands of police, she said.
The dead also included a 15-year-old boy, a 17-year-old girl and a 75-year-old woman, she said. The La Libre newspaper reported that a 2-year-old girl was clinging to life.
Reynders said Amrani had been summoned for police questioning on Tuesday but the reason for the questioning was not clear.
Officials
said Amrani left his home in Liege with a backpack, armed with hand
grenades, a revolve and an FAL assault rifle. He walked alone to the
central square. From a platform, he lobbed three hand grenades toward of
a bus shelter, then he opened fire.
He still had a number of grenades with him, Reynders said.
