July 23, 200521 yr By JILL LAWLESS, Associated Press Writer 27 minutes ago LONDON - The man shot and killed on a subway car by London police officers before horrified commuters had nothing to do with the investigation into a series of bombings against the city's transit system, police said Saturday. ADVERTISEMENT The man, whose identity has not been released, was shot Friday at a subway station in the south London neighborhood of Stockwell. A spokesman for Scotland Yard said on customary condition of anonymity that "the man was unconnected to the incidents of Thursday," in which bombs placed on three subway cars and a double-decker bus failed to detonate properly. The spokesman also said the man was "probably unconnected" to the July 7 subway and bus bombings that killed 56 people, including four attackers. Oops. They executed the guy and he had nothing to do with it...he wasn't even resisting arrest, just got shot in the face. Also, two suspects are in custody.

He also ran from police when they got close to him. I had a feeling that this was a mistake.
