The Guy who was shot, isnt being reported as dead yet. Anyone who watched the video, the copper looks down his sights, im sure it was a shot to wound, somewhere in the shoulder. However it would suprise me that the attacker didnt have a bullet put through his head.

I believe firearms officers are trained to target the centre of mass, as the head is a smaller area to aim for; and headshots are more liekly to trigger reflex reactions that may lead to any device being detonated.

And hitting the torso, makes a stray shot hitting an innocent bystander, far more unlikely.

Fortunate that this attack was mid afternoon rather than around 5pm when London Bridge would have been busy with commuters rushing to get home.

Met Police Statement coming shortly
