Birmingham attack is similar to Met incident says police
Chief Superintendent Richard North of West Midlands Police says "it is very much part of the inquiry" to see if an incident where a man was set on fire in Birmingham is related to one similar in the Metropolitan area.
He says his force are working closely with the Metropolitan Police "to establish to what extent those two incidents are linked".

There was no evidence of "two-tier policing" in the police's handling of riots that erupted after last year's Southport murders, a new report by MPs has found. The report by the Home Affairs Committee, published on Monday, examined the police response to disorder that broke out following the stabbings in July last year.
