Ed. Note: This is very literally all the information this publication has to offer at this time. First responders are not sharing more for exceptionally good reasons, most of which involve protecting bereaved and traumatised families. The rumour mill is, of course, going crazy, both in real life and on social media, and my best advice is to ignore all of it. If not for your own mental health, then at the very least for the sake of the people who just lost someone. ~ Kyra Hoggan, Editor.
