“Some of them went inside, but there was no sign of anyone. That lasted for about 30 minutes. Then they brought out a man. He was resisting and they pushed him to the floor and handcuffed his hands behind his back. Two of the police lifted him off the pavement and took him to a car,” the witness said.
Officers were called to Cayton Road in Greenford on Tuesday to reports of a stabbing and O’Halloran, an accordion player who busked for charity outside local shops and Greenford station, was declared dead at the scene.
