The UK’s police watchdog has opened an investigation into the police force that returned a gun and a permit to the shooter who went on to kill five people and himself in Plymouth, southwest England.
Jake Davison, 22, gunned down five people in the port city of Plymouth on Thursday. He killed two men, two women – including his mother – and a toddler, before turning his weapon on himself.
Attention has now turned to Davison’s troubled history, as well as his firearms ownership. He allegedly posted on ‘incel’ forums online, describing his struggles with the opposite sex, and had his shotgun and permit taken off him last December following an allegation of assault. However, Devon and Cornwall Police reinstated his licence and returned his weapon last month after Davison completed an anger management course.
The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) announced on Friday that it will investigate the circumstances surrounding the police force’s reinstatement of Davison’s licence.
“We will examine what police actions were taken and when, the rationale behind police decision-making, and whether relevant law, policy and procedures were followed concerning Mr Davison’s possession of a shotgun,” read a statement from IOPC regional director David Ford.
“The investigation will also consider whether the force had any information concerning Mr Davison’s mental health and if so, if this information was appropriately considered.”
Davison’s rampage was the worst mass shooting to hit the UK since 2010, when taxi driver Derrick Bird shot and killed 12 people in Cumbria.

Barcelona's emergency devices were deployed this afternoon in the city center after an explosion in Las Ramblas. Specifically, near the Petit Palace Hotel, located near the famous Boqueria market.
The events took place around 12:30 in the afternoon. Almost an hour later, Mossos d'Esquadra has ruled out that the events were related to a new terrorist action in the city, as had been feared at first.
And it is that the accumulation of circumstances that have led to the intervention of the emergency bodies takes place on the eve of the double attack in the Catalan capital.
The initial investigations have pointed to a "fortuitous deflagration" that has coincided with an accident in one of the hotel rooms.
Passersby have heard the explosion that has set off the alarms, which originated in the Ciutat Vella festival and the use of "pyrotechnics" in the Plaza del Pi, and they have seen a tourist leaving the hotel with a bloody injury. His injuries were caused by the breakage of the shower screen in his room, they explain from the Catalan security force. Message of tranquility from Mossos.
However, until the facts have been clarified, the security protocols for events in this profile have prevailed.
The Tedax have traveled to the hotel to look for explosives in the establishment, the area has been cordoned off "for prevention" and TMB has diverted the circulation of two bus lines (V13 and 59) that circulate regularly on Las Ramblas
The message that has been transferred from the security body has been that of "calm" and, little by little, activity in the area has recovered.
Displaced media and diversions Five fire brigade vehicles, four from the Mossos, three from the emergency medical service (SEM) and seven from the Barcelona Urban Guard have traveled between Las Ramblas and Carrer de la Boqueria

WASHINGTON — Authorities in Washington, D.C. have identified the man claiming to have an explosive outside the Library of Congress as Floyd Ray Roseberry.
Roseberry, 49, is from Grover, North Carolina, which is located in Cleveland County about 40 miles west of Charlotte. U.S. Capitol police said Roseberry was inside a pickup truck parked outside the Library of Congress claiming to have explosives with a detonator in his hand. Roseberry surrendered to police shortly after 2 p.m. and he was taken into custody without further incident. Multiple charges are pending against Roseberry.
RELATED: Cleveland County man arrested for making Capitol bomb threat
Roseberry posted multiple videos to a now-removed Facebook page Thursday, demanding to speak with President Joe Biden. Officials have not determined Roseberry's motive at this time but did say his mother recently passed away.
During a lengthy Facebook live video, Roseberry said, "the revolution is on" and that he'd "die for this land." His wife told NBC News he was leaving for a fishing trip Wednesday night and said he'd been upset by the 2020 presidential election results.
WCNC Charlotte confirmed that Roseberry is a registered Republican voter since 2016.
In his videos, Roseberry said he was “picked by the American [expletive] people to come up here and take a stand.” Much of his ranting was directed specifically at Biden and suggested he believed in the baseless election fraud conspiracy theories pushed by former President Donald Trump and other prominent Republicans that Biden was not legally elected.
“I just got chose for the job. Unlike you,” Roseberry said. “This ain’t about politics. I don’t care if Donald Trump ever becomes president again. I think y’all Democrats need to step down. Y'all need to understand people don’t want you there.”
Roseberry vented a litany of complaints, ranging from the quality of modern coinage – at one point saying “Your pennies are rotting, Joe!” – to the American treatment of Afghans during the ongoing troop withdrawal. He also repeatedly called on Biden, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other Democrats to step down.
“You step down out of office, I’ll step down out of this truck,” Roseberry said. “You go home. I’ll go to federal prison.”
The truck Roseberry drove from North Carolina was filled with bags and tubs of loose change apparently designed to turn the vehicle into a huge IED. Roseberry was vague about the nature of the supposed explosive device. At one point he claimed he had a “toolbox full of ammonium nitrate.” At another, he said police should ask their experts “what a 7-pound beg of gunpowder would do with 2.5-lbs. of Tannerite.”
“Biden, there’s a change shortage for a reason. I’ve got it all. I got loads of it,” Roseberry said. “And it don’t take but a half a roll of nickel to equal a .50-caliber bullet. And I’m telling you, they come in, they start shooting this window out… this bomb’s going off.”
Investigators later searched the vehicle. While the U.S. Capitol Police said they found no bomb, they did say they found bomb-making materials.
Charges against Roseberry were still pending.
Investigators said Roseberry's criminal history was "nothing that serious." In the late 1980s, Roseberry was charged with larceny over $200 and driving without a license. He was given probation for those offenses. Cleveland County court records indicate he was convicted of resisting a public officer in 1993 as well.
U.S. Capitol Police said Roseberry's mother recently passed away. Members of Roseberry's family told police he was dealing with "other issues."
Roseberry’s mother died of cancer, he said, and his wife had been denied insurance coverage for treatment of an unspecified cancer on her face. He claimed he had recently been denied coverage as well for shots “just so I can walk.”
“I went to the doctor yesterday to get some of those cell therapy shots they’ve been bragging about giving to athletes all these years. The doctor says, ‘No shots today. Insurance don’t cover it anymore,’” Roseberry said. “My wife goes to the doctor. She’s got cancer. And they told her it wouldn’t cover it anymore because it’s cosmetic. It’s on her face. Where’s your insurance at Biden? Obama? You keep on letting all these illegal Mexicans in here, all these illegal immigrants in here from Afghanistan… we’re going to have free health care for us. You’re [expletive] giving it to them. The South’s fed up!”
Roseberry’s home state of North Carolina is one of a dozen states with Republican-controlled legislatures that have not yet adopted expanded Medicaid eligibility granted by the Obama-Biden administration’s signature healthcare legislation, the Affordable Care Act. In states that have adopted expansion, the law allows households to qualify for Medicaid coverage if their income is below 133% of the federal poverty level – roughly $35,000 a year for a family of four. Roseberry is a registered Republican who voted most recently in the November general election, according to a public records search.
Those same records showed no significant property assets in Roseberry’s name – but a history of financial troubles. Court records show he filed for Chapter 13 bankruptcy in 1998, which establishes a payment plan for unpaid debts, and then Chapter 7 bankruptcy in 2000. Chapter 7 bankruptcy allows a trustee to sell off whatever assets are available to pay off creditors. His most recent employment was listed as an assistant supervisor at a women’s apparel manufacturer.
The FBI and the Cleveland County Sheriff's Office were seen Thursday at Roseberry's most recently known address.
Former FBI agent and federal prosecutor M. Quentin Williams said there is usually some sort of signaling leading up to these kinds of acts.
"There are usually signs. The question is are we paying attention to the signs?" Williams said. "We must pay attention to these signs, because they're giving us indications that they're considering doing something."

A stabbing attack in an Auckland supermarket in which multiple people were injured was an act of terrorism, New Zealand’s prime minister says. The suspect was shot dead by police.
“This afternoon, at approximately 2:40pm, a violent extremist undertook a terrorist attack on innocent New Zealanders in the New Lynn Countdown [supermarket] in Auckland,” Ardern said at a press conference.
The suspect was a known threat to authorities and under constant monitoring, she added.
Ardern said the terrorist was a Sri Lankan national who arrived in the country in 2011 and became a person of national security interest from 2016. She described the attacker as an ISIS-inspired “lone wolf.”

Dozens of police officers have reportedly been deployed on the streets surrounding a synagogue in the western-German city of Hagen, amid warnings of a “threat” to the building. The alert comes on the Jewish holy day of Yom Kippur.
“We currently have indications of a possible dangerous situation in connection with a Jewish facility in Hagen,” the North Rhine-Westphalia state police department in the neighboring city of Dortmund stated on Wednesday evening. “Police protective measures have been adapted accordingly,” the statement continued, adding: “We are in close contact with the Jewish community.”
A police spokesperson told Reuters shortly afterwards that officers were responding to an unspecified “threat” to the building.
The nature of the threat remains unclear, but photographs taken by the Westfalenpost, a local newspaper, show heavily armed officers patrolling nearby streets, which have been closed to traffic.
While initial reports suggested “hundreds” of cops were taking part in the operation, the actual number of officers involved was lost in translation, as “Hundertschaft” is used by the local media to describe police units of various size.
In a follow-up thread, the North Rhine-Westphalia police said that they were unable to tell when traffic restrictions in Hagen will be lifted.
The situation unfolded as the Jewish holy day of Yom Kippur began at sundown. Yom Kippur is the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, and observant Jews mark the occasion by fasting, praying, and abstaining from work.

Almelo stabbing: Two killed after ‘man opens fire with crossbow’
At least two people have died in the Netherlands after a man reportedly began shooting at passers-by with a crossbow from his balcony.
Police in the eastern province of Overijssel confirmed two people had died and a third was injured in the incident in the town of Almelo.
An investigation into the deaths has been launched, but videos circulating online appear to show a shirtless man firing into the street with a crossbow from his flat’s balcony.
Unconfirmed reports from local media suggest armed police responded to the scene and fired shots at a suspect and that a body was discovered inside the home.
Earlier on Friday morning, the police tweeted a situation was ongoing involving armed officers in Almelo and warned the public not to come near.
It remains unclear exactly how the two victims died, with some reports suggesting they were stabbed rather than shot by a crossbow.
Police confirmed later in the morning a third person was injured and a suspect had been arrested by officers at the scene as well.
A “GRIP-3” emergency was also declared, which allows the emergency services to work more closely together to respond to the incident and indicates there was a threat to the general population.
Astonishing videos from Almelo shared online appear to show a man standing on a second-floor balcony in his underwear, firing a large crossbow down into the street.
What sounds like a gunshot can also be heard and the man then moves back inside his flat. Photos from the scene also posted online show arrows in lying in the road and police officers marking them out with cones and tape.

An active-shooter situation is reportedly underway on the campus of a university in the Russian city of Perm. Footage purportedly taken at the scene showed people escaping from a building through windows.
The incident was reported at Perm State University, one of the oldest universities in the Urals.According to some media reports, at least one person has been hurt.
The university’s social media alerted everyone who is currently on campus to leave if possible, or lock themselves inside a room. The message told people on their way to the campus to immediately turn back.
A video published on social media apparently taken at the scene showed people escaping through the windows of a two-storey building.
Another video taken from inside the building appears to show an armed person dressed in black slowly walking across the campus as horrified people express their shock.

Among just four people detained during the remarkably peaceful Justice for J6 rally in Washington, DC was an armed man who flashed a badge, causing speculation that he was an ‘undercover fed’ accidentally outed by colleagues.
Despite weeks of constant media reports fueling fears of imminent violence, the Saturday protest proceeded peacefully. It attracted only a few hundred activists – and several times as many police and other law enforcement agents. Authorities reported only a handful of minor disturbances, and a total of four arrests, one of which was particularly curious.
In a video captured by independent journalist Ford Fischer, around half a dozen officers in full riot gear surrounded a man suspected of carrying a concealed handgun.
Are you undercover?” police could be heard asking the suspect, as they checked his pockets only to find what appears to be a badge. “I’m just here,” he responds when asked again whether he was “undercover” or “part of the event.”
The man was then escorted away, without being handcuffed or disarmed at the scene, Fischer noted, triggering much speculation about whether he was an undercover fed, an off-duty cop, or if the badge was even real at all.
While the Capitol Police acknowledged the incident in a tweet, they never mentioned the badge.
“The man did have a gun,” police said. “At this time, it is not clear why the man was at the demonstration. Officers charged him with 40 U.S. Code § 5104 - Unlawful activities.

One person has been killed and a dozen more injured in a shooting at a Kroger supermarket in Collierville, Tennessee, local law enforcement said. The gunman died at the scene from what officers believe was a self-inflicted wound.
A gunman opened fire on Thursday at a Kroger branch in Collierville, a town located on the outskirts of Memphis. One person was shot dead, 12 were injured, and the suspect ended his rampage by apparently taking his own life. The shooting took place at around 1.30pm local time.
Police officers from multiple departments responded to the incident, and SWAT teams cleared the store “aisle to aisle, room to room,” Collierville Chief of Police Dale Lane told reporters. “I’ve been involved in this for 34 years and I’ve never seen anything like it,” Lane said, noting that some of the injuries were “very serious.”
Video footage showed several ambulances rushing to a local hospital, with at least one carrying multiple victims. Local reporter Stacy Jacobson said her crew was instructed not to move their vehicle parked outside the hospital, as staff there were “preparing for helicopter landings.”
While one image circulated online showing a man standing on the supermarket’s roof, with some suggesting he may have been the shooter, Lane confirmed the person was, in fact, a Kroger employee.
The store chain later issued a statement on the shooting, saying it is “deeply saddened” and that “the entire Kroger family offers our thoughts, prayers and support to the individuals and families of the victims during this difficult time.” The Collierville location will remain closed until police complete their investigation, the company added. The FBI and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) said they are assisting the probe.
Collierville schools went into lockdown as a precaution as the incident unfolded, with an alert sent to parents warning of an off-campus active shooter nearby. The lockdown has since been lifted, according to Fox.
Police are questioning witnesses and preparing to search the suspect’s vehicle, which is parked at the scene.

Not stabbing or shooting bit I don’t know where to put this kind of news…
It‘s a tragedy; man killed their children and tried to kill himself.
children were 7-year-old twins, a boy and a girl, and a 4-year-old boy.
To me it seems that this happens more and more often.
Just few months back, a woman beat her daughter who then died in hospital.
The child was taken from caring guardians/foster parents only to live with biological parents who didn’t take care of her.
Awful times..
