The grieving family of a man shot dead by police in Australia say they want answers and support after claiming the officers involved used excessive force.
Police in Queensland said Luke Gilbert, 24, approached officers and allegedly lunged at them with a pen knife before he was shot on a street in the early hours. It's understood five shots were fired by two officers in total.
Luke and his younger brother, Zac, together with their parents, Nicola and Darren Gilbert, moved to Perth in Western Australia from Abbey Hey in Gorton, Manchester, when he was five. He went to Abbey Hey Primary School before they emigrated. Family back home in Manchester have spoken of their anguish and shock - and claimed Australian police weren't doing enough to help them.
