He also said there were "multiple shooters firing weapons out of the windows", “It was a machine gun from the room next to me,” he said. And, "They killed a security guard on my floor.”

Did he mean to say, "Obviously, being an Australian, this is

The gist of his interview suggests the shooting gave him a new found fear, it does not support that this is an "everyday occurrence" for him, it is logically incompatible.
