They just had an interview with a guy who was on the underground and I quote

"I saw an asian guy, he looked pakistani though"

He said that they chased the guy down and shot him 5 times in the chest at point blank range. That's not you average proceedure, that's an execution.

will they start shooting asians and pakistanis who carry rucsacks on the underground, cos they suspect them? i know there is more to it than that, but its a thought,.

perhaps they feared he was about to set off a bomb? as you say, it's not standard...

apparently he was running through the tube station, being chased by undercover police men, he vaulted the barrier and after a chase down the escalator he was shot as he was getting onto the tube. clearly the police did the right thing; this man was refusing to stop and ignoring police who were carrying firearms. Although why they shot at his chest i don't understand...bigger target than the head but if he was carrying explosives then that could have been very dangerous.
