LONDON (Reuters) -The man whose attack on a synagogue in northern England last week resulted in the deaths of two Jewish worshippers phoned police to say he was acting for Islamic State, British media reported on Wednesday.
Jihad Al-Shamie, a 35-year-old British citizen of Syrian descent, made the call after driving a car into pedestrians and attacking people with a knife the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue in the Crumpsall district, the reports said, citing police.
