In England's second city of Birmingham, the father of a man killed during recent rioting has been hailed as a hero for his dignified response to his son's death. Tariq Jahan's youngest son, 21-year-old Haroon, was one of three men of South Asian origin mown down by a car travelling at high speed while they were trying to protect their business from looters. Dozens of bunches of flowers have been lain at the spot where they died, as local people express sympathy, anger and disbelief at what has happened. Duration: 02:11

  • @RayAhchTober okkaii, i live in the city where he was run over and in july, i was applying for a job in that very same street long before riots broke, i feel safe and lucki, i wasn't there some people would send you to hell

  • @tintsap I stand corrected

  • @rayoctober The 39 year old arrested has been identified on bbc news as being a Black Carribean man to be specific, i am black aswell, and there is a problem amongst young blackmen's behavior  unnecessary violence and people are scared to specifically identified trouble causers.

  • Dr.Nasim, you cannot justify riots with economic inequality ! If one cannot earn or earn his livelyhood in UK then he must work hard or leave for a country where people still survive under less than a dollar a day but live a dignified life rather riot and loot people.

  • If they want a war these dirty pakis, we will give them.

    3 billion blacks soon.......Fear.

  • The perpetrators are suspected to be Afro-Caribbean on what basis? This is just a typical racist comment made by the Brits against blacks.... it's business as usual.
