The bomber who wasn’t

I was a bit slow reading the Saturday papers this weekend. I didn’t get to them until Sunday.

It was interesting therefore to read the headlines about a terrorist being shot by police in London.

The Australian trumpeted: “Five police bullets end it for London bomber who tried again”.

A day later, I knew while reading it the dead man wasn’t a bomber.

I really expect our media to give closer scrutiny to police and government reports. This is poor reporting.
