A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after the stabbing of a grandfather on a mobility scooter in west London.
Thomas O'Halloran, 87, died at the scene on Cayton Road, Greenford, after being attacked just after 16:00 BST on Tuesday.
A 44-year-old man was arrested at an address in nearby Southall, police say.
Detective Chief Inspector Jim Eastwood thanked the public "for their overwhelming support following this horrific incident".
...
Tuesday's death was the sixth murder investigation to be launched in London in four days and the 66th this year.

Indeed. BBC publishes everything about the victim but no name or picture of the perpetrator. Government and media are never going to stop protecting them.

And enabling them.The West is doomed. Better to emigrate to countries that won’t take crap from the ragheads. Not many left though
To: RandFan
They don’t tend to publish names of arrestees or suspects in the UK, AFAIK.

When they don’t mention the perp we already know who it is
To: RandFan
It would be illegal in the U.K. to mention any more details.

Correct. Suspects aren’t named unless and until charged and produced to court.
To: Winniesboy
After which it will still be illegal. Native British people are not allowed to correctly identify those who are killing their people and raping their children.
To: RandFan
Yup, it doesn’t take an expert to surmise so much more given the blandness of the article.
To: RandFan
I was going to post this myself but you beat me to it.
When it wants to, this sort of terrible crime
sparks outrage at the BBC.
Such as this recent example not anywhere so near BBC HQ:

When the victims are poor old White folks trying to get by in vibrant London, it's a different story.
Typical example of the BBC at work.
