History

Historical Context

In April 1999 neo-Nazi David Copeland set off three nail bombs in Brixton, Brick Lane and the Admiral Duncan pub, killing three and wounding about 140 people with up to 1,500 nails in each device. The Metropolitan Police Anti-Terrorist Branch arrested Copeland, and the bombings continue to be cited when police request public video evidence after subsequent incidents.
