Had a quick google of his name, the only other thing I could find is that he was cleared of attempted murder a few years ago?

Hopefully we'll soon learn why the operation was carried out, it's not mentioned (that I can see) in the article

Still no updates other than a statement stating it wasn't terror related, however the local rag, the Huddersfield Examiner has released a few photos, one of which shows a forensics officer photographing a suitcase which to my eye looks to be holding a substantial amount of drugs. They've named the 'victim' as a 28 year old asian bloke from Huddersfield.

Drove past it this morning man in white overalls taking samples you could see from above on the m62
Nice 3 shot group looking at the pictures
it does look that unlike some other places in the world where the car would be riddled with bullets, this was good shooting.Nice 3 shot group looking at the pictures
Hopefully the cop who did this was fully justified and not hung out to dry by others so as not to offend.
As a pre planned operation they were not boys scouts going camping were they?
seems a bit strange to shoot someone sat in a car on the motorway, must be more to this, looks like an assassination and generally our Police do try to avoid that, despite what people may say, this could be very difficult.
"Pre planner Operation", I am guessing that the plan wasnt to put a neat group of three shots to his torso from the outset ?

also... assassination death squads.. great, welcome to china!
Not quite. A Police car was shot at last week in Bradford. Quite possible they knew the stop would result the perps pulling out guns. Not a nice job for armed police. also... assassination death squads.. great, welcome to china!
Also worth bearing in mind that the last time someone was shot by WYP was 7 years ago. This is not the USA, they do not take it lightly or have itchy trigger fingers.

BBC site said other people arrested and that some of them had non-firearm related injuries. This was not a random arrest and those targeted appear to have put up resistance. We will see."Pre planner Operation", I am guessing that the plan wasnt to put a neat group of three shots to his torso from the outset ?

Well, it solves the prison shortage problem.

But that doesn't change the fact that this was an assassination.
I dont know the guy, but im not going to support extrajudicial assassinations when we have a perfectly adequate legal system in place.
