#1 Residents tried to protect the centre, clashing with the gunmen and throwing rocks at them in an effort to drive the militants away

#2 clashing with the gunmen and throwing rocks

Unfortunately, here in South Louisiana we don't have any rocks to throw at well-armed terrorists. On the other hand, we do have lots of guns with which to throw stuff. I guess they don't in India - culture or law?

#4 I caught a glimpse of a Indian policeman or soldier carrying what appeared to be an Lee Enfield MK V Jungle Carbine. Several were armed with MK IV's A bit dated, but still quite an effective weapon.
