The two robbers who were shot after an attempted robbery on an armoured van in Chandler's Ford, near Southampton UK have been named as Andrew Markland, 36, and Mark Nunes, 35. They were both from Brixton, London.

Terence Wallace, 25, also from London appeared before a court today on charges of attempted robbery and possession of a firearm. Police also confirmed they had found the blue Volvo that was involved with the robbery and which is now subject to forensic investigation.

The Independent Police Complaints Commission will open next week as part of the investigation into the shooting of the two men who died after being shot by Metropolitan Police marksmen as part of an operation by the Flying Squad.
