Teenager wearing helmet and bulletproof vest stabs 5 people at cafe in Turkey

The only positive on this is Turkey isn't going to hide the kid's name and pretend he's a child. This kid is going to be in prison for a very long time if he survives the first few weeks. No playing around there, despite the kid thinking it was a game. My lord is he going to find out the hardest way possible.

A video game!?!?

Is that really news? Violence and crazy people are the daily normal standard case in that whole region there and quite beyond. It would be breaking news if they would suddenly all turn into completely peaceful people, happily living together as an example for the rest of the planet. That is of course completely unrealistic and never can or will happen there.

According to the Turkish media,

He was influenced/in touch with someone from eastern Europe via Steam platform. That person apparently used the name Fjotolf Hansen which is the new name of Anders Behring Breivik who killed 77 people in Norway in a similar attack.

He had white supremacist symbols all over his gears. Yes I know you would ask how a Turkish person end up in this situation.

He killed 5 elderly people from 57 to 87.

He initially wanted to attack a church as well but somehow abandoned the plan.

Apparently he also published a manifesto/online streamed the attack similar to the other white supremacist attacks around the world.
