Duggan handgun supplier convicted

A drug dealer has been convicted of supplying a gun to Mark Duggan, whose fatal shooting by police just minutes later sparked the 2011 summer riots.

Kevin Hutchinson-Foster was found guilty at the Old Bailey of giving Mr Duggan the gun just 15 minutes before he was shot dead on August 4, 2011.

The 29-year-old's death in Ferry Lane, Tottenham, north London, sparked riots that swept across London and other English towns and cities.
