Sarah Reed - suffered from mental health issues. She was found dead in her cell at Holloway Prison after she hanged herself. Police did not kill her. She was subject to a brutal assault by a Met Police officer in 2012 but this is completely unrelated to her death.
•
Jermaine Baker - was part of criminal gang trying to free a criminal (Izzet Eren) from a police custody van. Luckily, police were aware of the plot and had the gang under surveillance. They planned to free the criminal by holding up the van using an imitation Uzi machine gun. This replica gun was later recovered from the bugged car. Arguably, this was a justified shooting.
•
Mzee Mohammed - had a knife and was behaving in an 'aggressive and erratic manner'. Police were called to scene and arrested him. They had to call an ambulance once it became clear that Mohammed was suffering 'a medical episode'. Police did not kill him.

Sean Rigg - died from cardiac arrest in 2008. He became 'uncooperative and aggressive' and police had to restrain him. Police actions had somewhat contributed to Rigg's death after he was held in a prone position for eight minutes.
•
Kingsley Burrell - similarly died from cardiac arrest four days after he was arrested in March 2011. An inquest ruled prolonged restraint and a failure to provide basic medical attention may have contributed to his death.
