CNN’s Carol Costello on Sydney: ‘Could Police Have Handled This Any Other Way?’

COSTELLO: "We heard that seven — up to seven hostages may have been injured. We’ve heard a police officer may have been injured. Obviously this is such a dangerous maneuver. Could police have handled this any other way?"
NN FEMALE PERSON: "It’s too early to tell exactly what happened there, Carol, and I — it sounds like from what I heard earlier that the first shots were fired from the inside. But this is something we really have to wait and see what the outcome is. The Australian police from what I, you know, know of them, they do a very good job and they’re very well trained. In hindsight, you can look back and say maybe things could have been done differently. Why was this man still out on the street walking around with all of the violence he’s committed. So all of these things I'm sure will get analyzed but it seems to me just from this specific last twenty, thirty minutes, the first shots seem to have been fired from the inside."
