Two people have died after a car and stabbing attack at a synagogue in Manchester - here's what we know so far
A third person - thought to be the suspect - is believed to be dead after being shot by police
Police say the suspect's condition cannot be confirmed due to "suspicious items on his person", with a bomb disposal unit at the scene
Three other members of the public are in a serious condition, with police saying a "large number of people" were worshipping at the synagogue - today is Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar
Police were called to the Heaton Park Synagogue at 09:31BST by someone who witnessed a car being driven towards members of the public, and one man stabbed
One witness tells the BBC the police gave the suspect "a couple of warnings - he didn't listen so they opened fire"
Keir Starmer has ended a trip to Denmark early, and says there will be extra police deployed at synagogues across the country
