The man who was fatally shot by police last night has been named.
Chris Kaba, who goes by the name Madix, was a musician and reportedly due to be a father.
Our thoughts are with his family and friends, as they start on the journey for truth and justice.

The UK Home Office has enlisted two private companies to help pick up migrants in the English Channel.
While one company appears to be a small enterprise, the other one is part of a large investment and consultancy firm based in the US.
