and dal babu, you have many years' experience, as you mention, experience specifically of the enfieldw a number of armed police around the area. what is the process? will there be other police forces who will be helping this, because it is in enfield and i guess that is under the metropolitan police? yes. i think the suspect's addressl was in the london borough of |enfield, within the metropolitanj police area, so the metropolitan police would have been| involved in the situation right from the get—go, _ given how close bushey is and the fact that the suspect has - a crossbow, so the local police and the metropolitan police may indeed have intelligence about this particular- suspect and information which they can then share with intelligence units- for the murder squad, . so that would have been done from the get go. that is really intelligence driven, so information i goes to the intelligence cell. and is assessed by the senior investigating officer, - and then det supt rob hall i think it was in charge, would make decisions about where those - resources would go so lots of - specula

earlier, i spoke to metropolitan police chief superintendent dal babu. officer is punched severely by one of the suspects. i think one of the suspects was tasered. i think that's totally appropriate use of force. and what we need to understand is the level of force that police can use has to be appropriate, reasonable and proportionate. and i think in this case, given the way that those police officers were attacked by these suspects, the police use appropriate, proportionate and reasonable force in subduing them. obviously this is subject now to an investigation. but just to reiterate what you've said, then, you think that the force used by the police, including kicking somebody who was on the ground, do you think that was appropriate? no, no, no, i didn't say that. no, i said that in terms of the incident, the new video, sorry, i'm talking about, not the old video. ok. the new video. we've seen you have seen the police officer has been attacked, punched, and severely attacked by the two suspects. the force that was used by those police officers to subd

can we bring in the very briefly now if we can form a met police chief superintendent, dal babu, andsuspect might be and there are three ways that this can be resolved, testimonies, and unfortunately we are talking about murder victims so we are unlikely to get testimony, i wouldn�*t what may have been sent to police officers on the scene before they sadly died, the second is people who may have seen the suspect in the area, leaving the area with or without a weapon, and a third which is key to this will be forensics, so tracking mobile phones and looking at cctv, door bell camera footage, footage from cars, and we don�*t know whether gordon hill is one of the, enfield is one of the biggest in terms of geographical areas of london boroughs, it is a huge area, so we don�*t know... i will stop you there, just very briefly, dal babu, when i say goodbye to viewers on bbc two and if you want continued coverage of this developing story, please do turn to bbc news. apologies for that, we had to say goodbye to viewers on bbc two and we are still live on bbc news watching these pictures from

. >> what do you make, then, of the comments of dal babu?intendent at the metropolitan police, and he says he thinks that racism had played a significant part in all of this . this. >> i absolutely disagree with that. there's no evidence whatsoever of that with the incident. apparently started off with a police officer with some assault on on an old lady and then a police officer being assaulted. no one has ever mentioned at the time any element of racism. so i think that's a very unfortunate thing that's a very unfortunate thing that del babu said. and it just it just stirs up further trouble. >> oh, i mean, correct me, if wasn't he the, black police officers association lead or something? del babu ? mike something? del babu? mike i mean, he was. yeah. so i mean , mean, he was. yeah. so i mean, so it makes me wonder why he would he would release a statement like that with all his experience when we haven't had the evidence yet. i mean, there hasn't been the investigation yet. it does seem very presumptive . presumptive. >> it's a very fooli
