A rapid series of car bombs and another blast ripped through a luxury hotel and a coffeeshop in the Egyptian Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheik early Saturday, killing at least 83.[...]
The attacks appeared well coordinated. Two car bombs, possibly by suicide attackers, went off simultaneously at 1:15 a.m. just more than 2 miles apart. A third bomb, believed hidden in a sack, detonated around the same time near a beachside walkway where tourists often stroll at night.
And an update on the latest London bomber scare:
Thank God for those handy identification papers that the terrorists always seem to leave behind.It is understood that [the slain man] was found not to have been carrying a bomb.[...]
The suspect, described as being of Asian appearance and wearing a thick, bulky jacket, vaulted over a ticket barrier when challenged by police and ran down the escalator and along the platform of the Northern Line.
[...]
Police are describing him as an “intimate accomplice of the cell”. His name and address were thought to have been found among the possessions left by the would-be bombers on Thursday.
Whoopsie, further update:
Gee, too bad they didn't arrest him after three policemen wrestled him to the ground, huh? Pumping five bullets into his head while they held him seemed to be a good thing at the time.Police admitted on Saturday they had shot dead the wrong man as they hunted for four men wanted for failed bomb attacks on London's transport system.
Jeezus.
....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
