A priest has been stabbed multiple times while delivering Mass at a Sydney church, a live stream appears to have shown.
The incident comes just days after a man killed six people in a Westfield shopping centre.
Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel was leading a service at Wakely’s Christ The Good Shepherd Church when he appeared to have been stabbed multiple times by a man who approached him at the altar.
A young man dressed in all black approached him before repeatedly stabbing him in the face and body as onlookers attempted to intervene.
Horrified screams can be heard by parishioners before the live feed of the Mass, which was being shown on YouTube, was immediately cut off.
New South Wales police said they were responding to the incident, which took place just after 7pm, according to Sky News Australia.
