EXCLUSIVE: The man who found himself at the centre of a major armed police response as he exercised in a 'gym vest' at a Salford park has spoken of the moment he heard cops shout 'shoot him if he moves'
“I said to the police, ‘it’s better safe than sorry’,” he said. “I’m not blaming the police, they were very nice with me. I was being nice with them, we work together. That’s why we pay our taxes so we keep ourselves safe.”
Again, I don’t think he took issue with being processed in handcuffs after being mistaken for a suicide bomber.
