newspaper mockup Anthony Grainger: Greater Manchester Police chief sorry for failings in fatal shooting | ITV News

The chief constable of Greater Manchester Police has personally apologised to the family of a father-of-two after a public inquiry found an incompetent armed surveillance operation was to blame for his death.

A report into the death of unarmed Anthony Grainger, 36, in a car park in Culcheth, Cheshire, in March 2012 exposed "serious deficiencies" in the planning and conduct of the operation by senior officers.

The 36-year-old father of two, from Bolton, was behind the wheel of a stolen Audi when a Greater Manchester Police (GMP) officer, referred to in court as Q9, fired his Heckler & Koch MP5 submachine gun.
