Default Uniformed Soldier Shot at War Memorial in Ottawa-R.I.P. Cpl. Cirillo
Breaking on twitter right now.

"There is blood on the granite of the war monument. I am hearing people say they heard 3 shots."

"Breaking: Uniformed Canadian soldier shot at War Memorial in #Ottawa."

"At the war memorial in. Ottawa. A soldier has been shot. They are giving him treatment now. #breaking"

"Witness says say three or four shots fired at #Ottawa's War Memorial, Soldier wounded, being treated by several paramedics."

"Witness tells #CBCNews suspected shooter of uniformed soldier at #Ottawa's War Memorial was carrying rifle."

"Witnesses say the shooter got in a car and went towards the Hill #cdnpoli #ottnews"

I wasn't sure if they meant Parliament when they said "the hill" but that picture clearly answers that question.

I saw breaking news late on CBCs website that the terror alert was raised due to chatter.

I guess this is it.

I hope everyone is safe and the soldier that was shot is not fatally wounded.

Military units moving in.

Prime Minister was in Parliament, but has been moved via a secure tunnel away from Centre Block.

Harper is "safe, has left the Hill".

I think the woman just said "I'm not trying to be dramatic, but our nation is under attack."

I don't think she meant to say those exact words.
