2 police officers received serious injuries from sword man.

One female police officer almost lost her hand and arm.
When seconds count, help is a long ways away:
Rowley said officers arrived on the scene 12 minutes after receiving the first call and the suspect was detained 10 minutes later, Rowley said.
I didn't see any officers getting injured in the video. As the comments say a 12 gauge would have worked a lot better than tasers. The British police are probably fortunate that the murderer didn't really know how to use one of those swords. I've seen demonstrations by those who train extensively with Japanese swords and within arms reach they are faster and deadlier than any firearm.

That was interesting to see the British police in action. Couple of the officers did a good job with the tasers. Most of them didn't look very serious. They seemed a bit slow to pick up the sword.

Tyson Fury cousin stabbed to death in Manchester. Calls on British lawmakers to pass some more laws on knives.
LOL, like they don't have stabbings in prison where knives are already banned and invasive searches are commonplace!
