Overview
- Jihad Al‑Shamie, 35, was identified by fingerprints and supporting evidence following the October 2 attack at Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation in Crumpsall.
- Earlier inquests recorded that worshipper Melvin Cravitz died from multiple stab wounds and Adrian Daulby died from a single gunshot to the chest fired by an armed officer.
- Police evidence said Daulby had been holding the main synagogue doors shut when he was fatally struck by a bullet that penetrated the entrance.
- Greater Manchester Police said three people who were seriously injured have been discharged from hospital and the force does not anticipate further loss of life.
- A pre‑inquest review for the victims' cases is scheduled for February 18, and investigators say the attacker may have been influenced by extreme Islamist ideology.
