A Bradford dad-of-three was killed by a single gunshot wound to the head during a police drugs raid, it was disclosed today.

Colin Berry, 49, of Buckingham Close, Clayton, died as unarmed police officers executed a search warrant at his home last Thursday.

The Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) is now investigating the events that led up to Mr Berry’s death, including interviewing the officers involved.

None of the three members of the Neighbourhood Policing Team, who carried out the lunchtime raid at Mr Berry’s detached home, have been suspended and all are are on full duties.

An IPCC investigator attended the scene last week and staff are continuing to liaise with members of Mr Berry’s family.

Although a post-mortem examination was held last Friday, it was not until this afternoon that all family members could be contacted and his name formally released along with the findings of the cause of his death.

Initial reports suggested Mr Berry died after a struggle with the officers during which a firearm was discharged.

West Yorkshire Police voluntarily referred the matter to the IPCC to conduct the inquiry.
