Trialist Was in Raid - Ipswich Town News
Current Town trialist Henry Kanu was the man held at gunpoint during a 2002 break-in at Nwankwo Kanu's home. The striker, the half-brother of the then Arsenal player, was tied up and had a gun held to his head by the raiders as they stole cars and phones from the Nigerian international's London home.
A Scotland Yard spokesman said at the time: "Kanu's relative was in bed and was confronted by men with pistols who threatened to kill him."
Kanu, who has previously played in Germany, Greece, Poland and Israel, is spending time with the Blues and hopes to win a contract.
