You are correct....according to Fox n Friends this morning, the police who regularly patrol this area do not carry any weapons or guns...this was a special police unit that went out and shot the suspect....according, again, to Fox, there were two police officers who were holding the suspect down while one police officer shot 5 bullets into the suspect...killing him. I say....it's about time. Good for the Brits!

Shoot first, ask questions later.
In situations like these, it's good practice.

Yep. You're not getting the benefit of the doubt when you are fleeing the police, suicidal, and part of an organization know to carry concealed explosives. Too bad they weren't able to press him for information, but that's a call for the guy whose life, and those around him, may be in immediate jeopardy.

I also heard the suspect was armed.
It would have been good to get him alive to interrogate him.
