What a horrible situation. It makes no sense. There is very little more innocent that I can think of than a comic convention crowd.

This is so sad. You find the sweetest crowds of people at these events.

Imagine being such an insufferable person as to run over people enjoying their art.

I’ve been attending Supanova Sydney for several years, never could I imagine something like this happening at an event like that. This is so horiffic, my heart goes out to everyone there.

Early reports suggest it’s deliberate by the driver, just disgusting behaviour.
Can already see just a slap on the wrist from the courts, but I’m hoping they throw the fucking book at them.

People who go to cons are the most harmless and kindest around, just there all for a great time. Dog act

We came over from Adelaide for it, my kid’s first convention. She was buzzing about how kind and friendly everyone was and how she had the best day. To get back to the hotel and see the news is just horrifying.

I was at Supernova, the title is a little misleading. It didn’t drive through the convention, but it did hit a group of people that had exited the event and were outside of the fairgrounds. A terrible tragedy, but they did not drive down the middle of the convention like the title suggests

>The car was driven by a 33-year-old Werribee man, who Major Collision Investigation Unit Detective Inspector Craig McEvoy said was “well known to police”.

Thoughts go out to all impacted.
May it be low injuries.
SMH are reporting one fatality

Had nothing to do with Supanova, someone having a manic episode drove into two people on a footpath is my guess
