A Manchester synagogue attack eyewitness has described the moment he says he saw police shoot a suspect on Thursday, 2 October. A major incident was declared after four people were injured in a stabbing and car attack at Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue on Middleton Road in Crumpsall. Greater Manchester Police confirmed the suspect was shot and has "declared Plato" — the same national code-word used by emergency services when responding to a terror attack. The attack was on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish religious calendar.
