Law change may end misconduct case over Kaba shooting in Streatham - BBC

The police marksman who shot Chris Kaba may no longer face misconduct proceedings after the government changed the rules on how officers' use of force is judged.

Sgt Martyn Blake shot 24-year-old Kaba in Streatham, south London, in 2022 after he tried to ram his way past police cars.
