Man shot by police 'had tied up children'published at 17:20 British Summer Time 5 July 2017
Alex Pope
BBC Local LiveA man shot by police in his home had tied up two of his children and threatened to kill himself after learning his marriage was over, an inquest heard.
Richard Davies, 41, fired six shots at police firearms officers from inside his home before he was killed by an officer, Peterborough Town Hall was told.
He also had a knife with him and had been drinking throughout the day, assistant coroner for Cambridgeshire, Nicholas Moss, said.
Jurors heard the engineer and father-of-three had been due to move out of his marital home the weekend after his death.
He had also been signed off work following difficulty with a colleague and had been prescribed anti-depressants.
Mr Davies was pronounced dead at the home he shared with his wife Samantha in Duck Lane, St Neots, on 21 October 2015.
Speaking to the jury, Mr Moss said the firearms officer believed Mr Davies was going to fire again and he had no option but to shoot.
"You will need to examine whether other options could or indeed should have been adopted," he said.
The inquest continues.
Owner of fire-hit bus 'had been fundraising' for charity vehiclepublished at 16:44 British Summer Time 5 July 2017
I've been speaking to the owner of a double-decker bus that went up in flames this afternoon by the side of the A11.
Eunice Jokrasset, who is originally from the Ivory Coast, and friends had collected the vehicle from a garage in Watford and were driving it back to her home in Smallburgh, north Norfolk, when the fire broke out.
She and other villagers had been fundraising for the bus and collecting books and other school equipment since February.
Image source, Hayley ShireenThey were planning to fill the bus and hold an opening ceremony in the village later this month, Ms Jokrasset, who runs the Crown Inn, said.
The bus was going to be shipped to the Ivory Coast in September.
"I cannot explain how I'm feeling. It's dreadful," Ms Jokrasset said.
She and friends were in the process of registering as an official charity in order to make the journey easier with the authorities, she added.
The fire service said the blaze, at Worsted Lodge south of Cambridge, started in the engine compartment.
