A Metropolitan police firearms officer may have been “angry, frustrated and annoyed” when he shot a suspect in the head despite him posing no imminent threat, a jury has been told.

Chris Kaba, 24, was killed on 5 September 2022 in Streatham, south London after a single bullet was fired through the front window of the car he was driving by a police marksman, Martyn Blake, 40, who denies murder.
