OLADEJI ADEYEMI Omishore, whofrom Chelsea Bridge after being tasered by police, was not holding a screwdriver, the police investigation has admitted.
There were widespread media reports, based on a police briefing, that the 41-year-old was wielding a screwdriver when he was tasered three times on 11 June. The false information dampened outrage after phone camera footage of the incident was broadcast on social media. Now, over a week later, the Independent Office for Police Conduct has revealed that Omishore was only carrying a “plastic and metal firelighter” when he was approached by two officers on Chelsea Bridge.IOPC Regional Director Sal Naseem said: “Our thoughts remain with Mr Omishore’s family and all of those affected by his death. We continue to liaise with his family and to keep them updated on the progress of our independent investigation.
“Our investigators continue to gather and analyse key evidence, including footage recorded at the scene and initial accounts from officers and members of the public. We would urge anyone else who may have witnessed or recorded any part of the incident, either on the bridge or after Mr Omishore entered the river, to get in touch with us without delay. It is important we understand all of the circumstances surrounding his death.
