Police attended an address in Carr Court, Davenport Close, shortly before 10am on 28 August last year to arrest 54-year-old Damian Mazurkiewicz for an unrelated matter.
Attending officers entered the address where they found Mazurkiewicz holding an imitation firearm. Mazurkiewicz was challenged by officers before he pressed a trigger switch he had in his hand. This resulted in a burst of black smoke being released from a black box attached to his body.
