Terror suspect of Narre Warren was shot dead by police. Twitter
A teenage terrorism suspect shot dead in Melbourne greeted two officers with a handshake before stabbing them multiple times, police say.
The 18-year-old Narre Warren man, who police believe may have previously displayed an ISIS flag, met the officers outside Endeavour Hills police station on the city's outskirts on Tuesday night.
He then stabbed one, an AFP officer, a number of times, before twice stabbing a Victorian officer in the forearm, Victoria Police Assistant Commissioner Luke Cornelius said.
Mr Cornelius said the Victorian officer fired a single shot that killed the man.
"Our members had no inkling that this individual posed a threat to them," he told reporters at the scene early on Wednesday morning.
"It's absolutely clear to us that our members really had no choice other than to act in the way in which they did."
Mr Cornelius said it was of the man's freewill that he attended the station.

* Govt to introduce foreign fighters bill
"This is not an exercise in police seeking to single out particular individuals in the community," he said.
"It appears this individual was acting on his own and was not acting in concert with other individuals," he said.
Both officers were taken to hospital, where they remain in a stable condition.
AFP Commander Bruce Giles said the officers and the man had spoken cordially before the stabbing.
"The incident took place in the course of normal greetings; so, meeting with the individual, shaking hands, introducing and then the incident unfolded," he said.
He said it appeared the man had been acting alone.
