The brother of the man accused of the Bourke Street mall car attack has urged Melbourne to stay strong in his first public comment since five people were killed. Many others were injured when Jimmy Gargasoulas allegedly mowed them down with his car on 20 January. Jimmy Gargasoulas is in custody charged with five counts of murder and may face more charges. Angelo Gargasoulas was allegedly stabbed by his brother in the hours before the mall incident. I thank everyone involved in making this an easier time for everyone else involved, and my family.”
