  • So we're not going to talk about the individual, apparently because it's a live investigation.

  • But what I can say at the moment.

  • It could you just repeat the last part of your question?

  • Nothing to suggest that anybody else was involved.

  • They're not looking for anybody else in connection with what happened in reading.

  • You have to forgive me.

  • I got a police helicopter overhead.

  • A moment is probably making it difficult for you to hear me on.

  • The other critical thing is that the threat level hasn't changed as a result of this attack.

  • The threat level remains substantial, which means then attack is likely, but it hasn't been raised to severe, and I think that's another clue that This is believed to be an isolated incident, but of course, an incident the police still need to understand fully.

  • And that's why yet again, the appeal for the public to come forward not to share videos on social media but to provide videos to the police to come forward evidence.

  • They want anybody who saw anything before or after or during this and yesterday to give evidence to the counterterrorism detectives, because in the end, these investigations are built on forensics, but also on eyewitness evidence.

  • And very, very often the police struggled to get enough people to come forward and so explain exactly what they've seen.

  • So that's a key part of the request from Neil Basu assistant commissioner Neil Basu in his role as the head of counter terrorism policing in the UK Daniel Many thanks indeed s Daniel Sandford.
