Two unarmed female constables were lured to their deaths today by a wanted man, a police chief has revealed.
Greater Manchester Chief Constable Sir Peter Fahy said Dale Cregan is thought to have made a bogus burglary report then attacked the officers, opening fire with a gun and a grenade.
Sir Peter named the "brave" officers as Fiona Bone, 32, and Nicola Hughes, 23.
