MANCHESTER, England (AP) — The attacker who killed two people and injured three at a British synagogue has died, police said Thursday.

The suspect who rammed a car into people and then began stabbing people on the holy day of Yom Kippur was shot by police, Greater Manchester Police said.

Police initially said they believed he was dead but they couldn’t immediately confirm it because of concerns he had an explosive on him.

The incident took place as people gathered at an Orthodox synagogue on Yom Kippur, the day of atonement and most solemn day in the Jewish calendar.
