That's sad. Very sad.

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I can't believe we've been clapping one group who look after the public and have been throwing another under a bus for political point scoring. All lives matter and especially those who protect and serve us. All of them.

My condolences for the family.

He must of been visiting the Police Station in Croydon that's why he hasn't been searched for a weapon. The intention was to kill. metpoliceuk

Same as other comments, how tf did he get a gun into the custody suite. He should have been searched when arrested and searched again once he got to the police station.

“Aspiring rapper” ?

😡😡

Serious investigation needed as to how he still possessed a firearm whilst in the custody suite.

child killer authority gone.

Any news about the man allegedly killed by the police in Trafalger Square last Saturday?

Hold The Guardian and the democrat media thugs accountable for inciting violence through public deception.

We await details of the shooter's and victim's ethnicity.

Best mayor ever

Literally no one should get shot in a custody suite. Someone failed to do their job properly. Either the subject wasn't search properly and then handcuffs were removed or he overpowered an officer.

The softly softly approach demanded by SadiqKhan , Cressida Dick and blm made this inevitable. They have blood on their hands.

Hope he gets better

Latest: skymarkwhite 2:15am rules out a bail returnee, so tragic and also feel for the officers who brought the offender into custody as they will now feel awful about the police search prior to entering custody.
