CANADA-ATTACKS-POLITICS-PARLIAMENT

Police vehicles block a road near Parliament on October 22, 2014 in Ottawa, Ontario. Heavily-armed Canadian police backed by armored vehicles and surrounded parliament in Ottawa on Wednesday after at least one gunman shot a soldier guarding a nearby monument. Witnesses said they saw a man armed with a rifle running to the parliament building after the shooting, and some local media cited reports that there may have been a second shooter. One witness, Marc-Andre Viau, said he saw a man run into a caucus meeting the parliament, chased by police who yelled "take cover." That was followed by "10, 15, maybe 20 shots," possibly from an automatic weapon, he said. "I'm shaken," said Viau, who works at the parliament. The soldier appeared seriously wounded. Emergency medics were seen pushing on his chest to revive him. AFP PHOTO/MICHEL COMTE (Photo credit should read MICHEL COMTE/AFP via Getty Images)
