One of the victims killed in the Manchester synagogue attack on Thursday suffered gunshot wounds — possibly from shots fired by police officers on the scene. Police added that one of those injured and currently receiving treatment in hospital also suffered a gunshot wound. Both people believed to have been shot were behind the synagogue doors.<\/p>\n

The suspect Jihad Al Shamie, who was neutralised by the cops, didn’t carry a firearm and it is believed that the police personnel shot the late person during their attempts to bring the attacker under control, officers said on Friday in a statement.<\/p>\n

“It is currently believed that the suspect, Jihad Al Shamie, was not in possession of a firearm and the only shots fired were from GMP’s Authorised Firearms Officer,” the Greater Manchester Police (GMP) statement said.<\/p>\n

“It follows therefore, that subject to further forensic examination, this injury may sadly have been sustained as a tragic and unforeseen consequence of the urgently required action taken by my officers to bring this vicious attack to an end.” <\/p>\n

Police on Friday identified the two men who were killed in a car and knife attack on a synagogue in northwest England on the holiest day of the Jewish year, as Britain’s chief rabbi said an unrelenting wave of antisemitism lay behind the crime.<\/p>\n

Greater Manchester Police said local residents Adrian Daulby, 53, and Melvin Cravitz, 66, died in the attack on the Heaton Park Congregation Synagogue in the Manchester suburb of Crumpsall.<\/p>\n

Three other people are hospitalised in serious condition.<\/p>\n

Police shot and killed a suspect seven minutes after he rammed a car into pedestrians outside the synagogue on Thursday morning and then attacked them with a knife. He wore what appeared to be an explosives belt, which was found to be fake.<\/p>\n

The assault took place as people gathered at the Orthodox synagogue on Yom Kippur, the day of atonement and the most solemn day in the Jewish calendar.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
