July 23, 2005
LONDON (Reuters) – The man mistakenly shot dead by London
police hunting four bombers may have been Brazilian, Sky News
said on Saturday.
Police have admitted they shot dead the wrong man on Friday
as they combed London for four men after attempted bomb attacks
on the city’s transport system on Thursday.
“He may have been Brazilian,” Sky said of the man’s
identity. “These are unconfirmed reports.”
Asked to comment, a police spokesman told Reuters: “We have
not released that information at this time. We will not do so
until all the correct legal proceedings, including agreement
with the family, have been completed.”
