The police appear to have accidentally killed another non-white youth. The details are somewhat murky, but it seems that eleven officers were involved in arresting and ‘subduing’ him, which according to witnesses quoted in the Daily Mail, involved cuffing him, sitting on him, kicking him, and spraying him with pepper spray. He later died in hospital. The cause of death has not yet been established. The police are calling for calm.**
