One of the water guns was blue and white, and one was pink and white
A 13-year-old boy was surrounded by armed police after an officer mistook his water pistol for a real gun. The youngster was rammed off his bike by a police van and handcuffed as he was confronted by marksmen in Hackney, east London, in July.
It said in a statement: “The subsequent treatment of Child X and the horrific scene that unfolded was appalling. A police van rammed Child X off his bicycle, knocking him to the ground. He said: “This incident was understandably extremely distressing for the boy involved as well as the rest of his family. We know it may cause public concern and we want to help the public understand why we responded in the way we did.
The Independent Office for Police Conduct watchdog directed that the Met could carry out both investigations itself. Mr Conway said: “Our officers are dealing with fast-moving situations, based on the limited information provided to them at the time.
