Greater Manchester Police TAU police; Justice4Grainger campaigner, Wesley Ahmed, wants Police charged with Murder. A jury at Manchester Crown Court cleared three men of plotting a robbery when armed police swooped on their car parked up in Culcheth. The three men accused were David Totton, Joseph Travers and, Anthony Grainger, the Salford man shot dead by police during the incident. A firearms officer shot the unarmed father-of-two through a car windscreen when armed police surrounded his vehicle in a “pre-planned operation” in Cheshire on 3 March, 2012.


On March 3rd, 2012 Anthony Grainger, 36, was shot by police in a car park in suburban Manchester. He was allegedly sat, unarmed, in a stationary vehicle, having been followed by police in a pre-planned operation. Anthony Grainger’s death shocked thousands of people, and left many close to him – including his partner and two young children – devastated. He is said to have had no previous convictions for violent offences, and presented no threat to the police, armed with machine guns, who surrounded him in several cars. He was suspected of carrying out a robbery.
