Woolwich: The Investigation

This article from the BBC News online is a general article of the events of the murder of Drummer Lee Rigby of the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers an infantry regiment of the Queen's Division of the Royal Army. The article details how the men who committed the murder ran him down with a car and the driver and passenger attacked him with knifes and cleavers and hacked him to death. This is gruesome but the men who were attacking him attempted to behead him. On of the attackers named  Michael Adebolajo asked the witnesses to film the scene and then he proceeded to give messages that were islamist in nature. In the article says "He and the other attacker, now named as Michael Adebowale, then waited for the police to arrive. Witnesses said that Mr Adebowale was holding a gun that looked like a rusty old revolver. Armed officers reached the scene 14 minutes after the first 999 call. Footage obtained by the Daily Mirror shows the pair rushing towards armed police - before they fall to the ground as the specialist armed officers open fire. One witness said that the attackers' revolver misfired and may have injured the man who was holding it." During the investigation police officers and the investiagtive services known as MI5 has looked into what made these men very radical and had come with this conclusion mentioned in the article "It is not clear exactly when Mr Adebolajo became involved in radical Islamist causes, but the BBC has established that as recently as a month ago he was seen handing out leaflets and preaching in one of Woolwich's main shopping streets. He used to associate with a group called al-Muhajiroun that was later banned by the home secretary on national security grounds." There were four arrests from the investigation on conspiracy to commit murder charges. After the attacks there were reports of protests and riots that were calling the removal of all islamic peoples out of London. I do not know whether these reports are true or not but I hope that this will not escalate.
