Police have shot dead a young knife-wielding man on the Logan Motorway, in the fourth police shooting in Queensland’s south-east in as many months.
The man has been identified as 22-year-old Raghe Abdi, from Calamvale.
Emergency services were called to the motorway in Drewvale, on the outskirts of Brisbane’s southside, just after 6am on Thursday.
Police confirmed officers were responding to calls regarding a traffic hazard, as the man walked alongside the motorway.
