British police reinforced as Cameron declares fightback

BRITAIN’S prime minister David Cameron yesterday declared a fightback against looters and rioters as a community mourned the deaths of three men killed while trying to protect local businesses.

Police forces across Britain called in reinforcements in an attempt to stop another night of the riots that have now claimed four lives.

As looting and violence spread from London to the north-west and midlands, three men — Haroon Jahan, 21, and brothers Shazad Ali, 30, and Abdul Musavir, 31 — were killed when a car struck them as they protected shops in Birmingham at 1am yesterday.
