Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison confirmed one of the people taken into custody was an Australian-born citizen.
The ABC has identified Grafton man Brenton Tarrant as the man visible in livestreamed footage of the attack.

El Grauniad - Rightwing extremist wrote manifesto before livestreaming Christchurch shooting
The man who livestreamed himself attacking a Christchurch mosque and murdering at least 40 people identified himself online before the rampage as Australian citizen Brenton Tarrant.
On a now-deleted Twitter account, Tarrant posted multiple photos of what appear to be machine gun magazines and a link to what is being described as a manifesto for his actions.
The 74-page document starts off quoting a Dylan Thomas poem, Do not go gentle into that good night, and then moves onto a rant about white genocide.
Tarrant outlines his motivations: including to “create an atmosphere of fear” and to “incite violence” against Muslims while offering up autobiographical details.

Time Zone is incredible. One of the most complicated things Man has ever devised. In my Time Zone, it's now Friday. March 15. And you're quoting my exclusive interview with Breitbart, which I gave on Monday (my time). March 11. Very successful interview, they did many stories from that one. Which, by the way, I did a Sub of the best (most popular) story from Tuesday. Just to see what would happen. I knew what would happen. And that one's already rejected by Soylent News Editors -- as usual, no explanation. Just, Rejected. For me it wasn't yesterday. And, I think, for most of our amazing World, it wasn't yesterday. In Death Monkey Time Zone, I don't know, maybe it is.
I'm so happy that you read Breitbart. It's a very smart move. And it would be a great quote. In the Context, it would be a great quote. But you've taken it very far out of the Context. I was talking about America. About the problems we're having with our violent left, and alt-left. Something that, there was a story about it on Soylent News today. Which for you, possibly, is still a few days in the future. How my D.H.S. is using Surveillance to go after the instigators of the Caravans -- and doing a marvelous job. So in my interview, you left out, I said "When I see that – what’s going on on college campuses, when I see that young man get punched in the face, when I see that other one with cowbells – you know what I’m – I thought that was disgraceful. I can’t believe that any one would have let him do that. If I was speaking, I tell you, there’s no way I would have been allowed to just stand there like that and keep trying to make a speech [while] the guy’s ringing a bell right in your face. You can’t even – that was a terrible – Did you see that picture? Did you see? You know what I’m talking about? I thought that was really terrible."
Going to Mosque doesn't necessarily make somebody Left. And it doesn't make them right either -- not necessarily. But, I wasn't talking about Mosque. I was talking about Cowbell. The violence coming from our left. And I said, that violence is terrible. Cowbell, so horrible, right? I ask "right?" But I don't expect you to say "right." And I don't expect you to agree. Because it's your people doing the Cowbell Violence & many many violent acts. The Socialists, the Dems, the Democrat Socialists, the Antifa, the Black Identity Extremists. All ringing Cowbell as loud as they can. Until our great Silent Majority can barely hear ourselves think. And you call it a "discussion." It's not a discussion, it's mostly Cowbell. And it's too much Cowbell. Much too much. Crazy!!! breitbart.com/politics/2019/03/12/exclusive-trump-on-campus-free-speech-executive-order-were-going-to-do-a-very-big-number-probably-next-week [breitbart.com]
