'No criminality' by police officers who shot knifeman during Glasgow Park Inn stabbings, Crown probe finds

The Crown Office has found "no criminality" in the actions of police officers who shot a knifeman during a rampage at the Park Inn Hotel in Glasgow. Ayslum seeker Badreddin Abdalla Adam Bosh was killed by cops after he stabbed six people in a frenzied attack at the hotel on West George Street on June 26, 2020.

The 28-year-old Sudanese man was shot after attempts to use less-lethal weapons were unsuccessful. Those he injured included three asylum seekers, two hotel workers and a police officer who had responded to the initial emergency call.

An independent investigation was conducted by the Procurator Fiscal after Bosh was gunned down. The Crown Office found officers' decision to shoot and kill Bosh was "absolutely necessary". His family has been informed of the decision not to bring a prosecution.
