Information is always scant when it comes to eye-witness reports f a 'news'-worthy incident and usually,
the MSM rely on the press release from law enforcement to create the main foundation of the situation.
But here, we have to mainstream media articles that varies so much, one might believe they were two
separate incidents due to the specific parts being offered, but do not connect in the manner one is led
to believe.
The BBC: (This was published at 8.30pm on Saturday evening.)
Okay, we have a branded vehicle, a Mercedes. Was it a car or a van? The Mercedes was black, the van was black and so a reader
might assume the vehicle that is reported is a black Mercedes van.
The man died because the Police Force 'fired shots' -which is the diversity-loving BBC's way of saying the Police shot the man.
The Police state 'the man was seen entering a bank and bookmakers in an area near Marloes Road, Kensington, at about 15:05.
He was then seen getting into a vehicle and leaving the area'. However, the article fails to connect the 'vehicle' as a car or van.
So the man did something illegal that we're not informed about.

Here's another version and remember, the same press release is given out to all major news outlets. There can be updates, the
foundation of the original release always remains the same. This happened, these are the facts. A described object -in this case,
a black vehicle, cannot magically morph into something else unless a narrative is being formed for unknown reasons.
The Sun. (This was published at 1.05am in the early hours of Sunday morning and updated at 9:08am on Sunday morning.)
So now we know -with assistance from the image and footage, that a male was fired upon by Police when he was in the back
of a black Mercedes taxi. There's no mention of the driver and the Sun's headline refers to a robbery connected to this shooting
The BBC's article oddly leaves out the word 'cab' or taxi in this London-based incident and implies more than one vehicle was
involved and that the man died, but not killed by bullets.

Quote:Kensington: Man dies after being shot in police confrontationBBC:
'A man has died after an incident involving armed police in west London.
Officers had been responding to reports of a man with a firearm entering a bank and bookmakers in Kensington
before stopping a vehicle at about 15:20 GMT, the Metropolitan Police said.
Vague, non-descript image of incident.
An eyewitness told the BBC they saw police shooting at a black Mercedes.
The force said shots were fired and a man sustained gunshot wounds and died at the scene. It said the incident
was not being treated as terrorism.
There was "no risk to the public", it said.
Alexis, who did not want to give his surname, told the BBC he saw police with assault rifles surround a black van
and shoot at it.
'Three shots'
He said: "They shouted 'police'. "And then they shot twice at the [Mercedes].
"There were two shots in quick succession." He said he had been worried the van "might explode" so he ran away
from the scene and it was then he heard a third shot.
Police said a man was seen entering a bank and bookmakers in an area near Marloes Road, Kensington, at about 15:05.
He was then seen getting into a vehicle and leaving the area. The force said the vehicle was stopped by armed officers
about 15 minutes later at the junction of Kensington Road and Palace Gate, before shots were fired.
London Ambulance Service and London Air Ambulance were called to the scene, but the shot man was pronounced dead at 16:08.
Police said officers were trying to confirm the man's identity and to inform his next of kin.
The shooting has been referred to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) which confirmed an investigation had begun.
A spokesperson said: "After being notified of the incident by the Met Police Service, we sent investigators to the scene and the
post-incident procedure to start gathering evidence.
"Our thoughts are with anyone affected."...'

Quote:Tense moment cops aim rifle at ‘gunman who raided bank and bookmaker’s’ before being shot dead near Kensington PalaceThe Sun:
'This is the tense moment a cop points a rifle at an alleged gunman's head after he reportedly raided a bookies and a bank.
Cops scrambled to a street just minutes from William and Kate's home in Kensington, West London, yesterday afternoon where
the man was shot dead.
Man alive on the ground next to a black Mercedes taxi/van/cab with Police aiming rifle at his head.
Officers were called to reports of a man with a firearm entering a bookmakers and a bank around Marloes Road in the capital
yesterday. Loud bangs were heard earlier yesterday afternoon, just yards from Kensington Palace after police were said to have
fired several shots at the gunman in the back of a vehicle.
The force confirmed that despite emergency service's best efforts, the man could not be saved and died shortly after.
Efforts are under way to confirm the man's identity and to inform his next of kin.
Witnesses described hearing "three loud bangs" after a black vehicle was stopped by police around 3.20 yesterday at the junction.
Cops flooded the streets with blue lights as they responded to the incident at the junction of Kensington Road and Palace Gate.
An eyewitness who said they saw the horrific scenes unfold claims cops dragged the suspect from a cab after he was shot, before
handcuffing and searching him.
He told The Sun: "He was shot in the car, then police handcuffed him and searched him at the same time.
"He was bleeding from his mouth and it looked like he was struggling to breathe.
The eyewitness added: "He was in the back of a cab, as a passenger, the police pulled in front of the car and forced it to stop.
"They shouted at him for about ten seconds to get out, saying 'hands up' and whatnot - it looked like he wasn't listening to them.
"And then they just went bang, bang, bang."
Katie Roberton, 40, was visiting the palace with her son. She said: “We heard these shots and I said to my boy, ‘My God, that
sounds like gunshots’. “It was not ‘bang, bang, bang’ but slower, all over in seven seconds.
“I stopped in my tracks, then we saw people running.
“It was really scary. I was with my son, so I had to stay calm for him. We just got out of there as soon as we could.”
NO TERROR THREAT
Other witnesses saw paramedics performing CPR on at least one person.
The Met Police said the incident was not terror-related and there was no risk to the public...'
A number of police cordons have been put in place along Kensington High Street, and police officers are keeping guard at the
largest cordon between a Starbucks and a building named Broadwalk House. Around 10 police vehicles are in place around the
cordon.
A tent has been at erected in the middle of a cordon in Kensington High Street.
It has been placed next to a black car and is surrounded by one unmarked police car and three patrol vehicles.
Members of the public are being diverted away from the cordon through Kensington Gardens...'
