Slow To Put Out Any Details

[-Talbot-]

Saw this on the news last night details still not clear.

Got form and known to police I heard on the news but not much more. Chap from his community was saying he had heard guns going off in the house where the chap lived.

[Mamyalynne]

The must have more investigating to do.

[rockyracoon]

Info on this is very light isn't it. Maybe it was terrorist related so are keeping schtum.

Mind, the last time a young bloke was killed by the police, we had terrible riots.

[mikey4444]

This is all a bit odd and mysterious....but I expect the truth will out in the end.

[hc4361]

The police have stressed this is not terror related

[ToraToraTora]

yes I'd imagine they'll start persecuting the firearms officers forthwith.

[Togo]

If I'm not mistaken Talbot this character has previous for firearms offences. Perhaps Gromit will show up with the same sort of condemnation of him that he expressed for the man who died in prison.

Well I up most of the night with one of the kids (high fever) but not one of the media channels I watch were really interested in it. I would have thought police shooting someone on a motorway was big news.

[Gromit]

The IPCC are investigating so nothing will be revealed unless they agree to do so.
If this is a drug dealer and if a gun was in the vehicle, then yes, good riddance.
However, at the moment it is looking a bit fishy.

But not "bacony".

I think they dont want a Mark Duggan part II
but ( or and ) ..... known to the police
acquitted of shooting someone a few years ago

gun found in car ....

father of two and even the relatives are saying - we knew he was not an angel .... Three others in the car and presumably the police remembered to turn their videos on this time .....

[-Talbot-]

A protest has started and a crowd has begun to gather.
Let's hope they get bored rather quickly.

[bhg481]

Daily Mail now claim he was a drug dealer.

[Gromit]

// Daily Mail now claim he was a drug dealer. //

Fecking Hull the Daily Mail must be employing Sherlock Holmes.

[-Talbot-]

News that he was a wannabe gangsta type came out early but the timeline of events since have been a trickle. 24 hours to put out that they found a gun in the car for instance.

[Peter Pedant]

.

all the gun crime in Manchester is drug related (no not the police for chrissakes)

the Huddersfield Examiner has been busy

the attempted murder charge was thrown out on a half way house application - Galbraith application of no case to answer [2010]

video contradicted the main prosecution witness - oops !

[shoota]

Unusual....
We were taught not to fire at a windscreen unless it was ABSOLUTELY necessary.
But then again that was in the days of (relatively) low powered .38 rounds.

[Zacs-Master]

Protests happening in Bradford.

And on the M62 (though only a few)
