The terrorists that shot and wounded the people at the parade were hiding inside the park, not visible to the individuals. The people there were distraught when the terrorists started attacking,their first instinct to frantically run away, seeking for help to stop the deaths around them.

After two to three hours, three unidentified attackers were gunned down and caught by security, leading to arrests hours later, said by news agencies.
