- description: Brisbane Mall Shooting - Brisbane Queen Street Mall Shooting Gunman Live Footage NON-LETHAL weapons have been used to subdue a gunman responsible for bringing Brisbane's Queen Street mall to a standstill on Friday. 3pm: Eyewitness Tariq Khan said he had been making a money transfer at Xpress Money when the incident began and had initially been trapped in the public part of the premises after staff locked themselves behind the glass counter. He said the "heavily tattooed" man had had a small gun that he was pointing at his own neck while Police tried to talk him down. "He was crazy," Mr Khan said. "He was saying to Police, 'shoot me in my head'." He said after about an hour-and-a-half he heard "three bullet sounds" although he could not tell who had been responsible. "He was shot on his shoulder, I could see blood on his shoulder," Mr Khan said. "Then the police caught him." Mr Khan said the incident had been "threatening in the beginning" but he did not believe there was any danger to anyone, including the gunman. "He was safe," he said. 1.50pm: The troubled father of three who held Queen Street Mall to siege was days away from fronting court on a string of charges around a bizarre self-harm incident. The man, 34, was due to face Caboolture Magistrates Court this week on multiple charges. His lawyer, Adele Osborne, who represented him at a mention this week, declined to comment on whether her client had any mental health issues. He was not required to apply for bail over the recent incident. 1.40pm: Staff and customers from a Queen Street Mall clothing store told how they locked themselves in when a gunman started brandishing his weapon just metres away. They told how he shouted at police that he "just want to see my kids" while holding the gun under his chin. The girls said they were locked inside Latin Clothing Company for three-and-a-half hours. "He was going around everywhere and holding the gun to his neck," one said.
