A Metropolitan Police marksman was charged Wednesday over the September 2022 death of Chris Kaba, 24.
Kaba was killed after officers in an unmarked vehicle pursued and stopped the car he was driving. He was struck by a single bullet fired through the windshield as he sat in the Audi car.Kaba’s family welcomed the murder charge against the officer, who has not been publicly named. He was granted conditional bail and is expected to stand trial next year.Only about one in 10 of London’s police officers carry firearms, and the ones that do undergo special training.
The force said it still had “significant firearms capability,” but had asked the Ministry of Defense to provide assistance with “counterterrorism support should it be needed.” “In the interest of public safety, they have to make split-second decisions under extraordinary pressures,” Braverman posted on X, formerly known as Twitter. “They mustn’t fear ending up in the dock for carrying out their duties. Officers risking their lives to keep us safe have my full backing, and I will do everything in my power to support them.”
