This glaring error is in the 3rd paragraph down, 2nd sentence. At 03:09, on 23.04.2011, as soon as I first noticed it, I telephoned the Press Association and complained and then sent a complaint on their contact page on their website.
I told them the story has been live for 24 hours and nowhere else has this been reported, because it is completely incorrect, and said that it was not only really shoddy journalism, but completely unacceptable and an outrage, considering the fact that this report would have now gone around the world.
Inexplicably, despite having done this 6 hrs ago, the report remains in it's original form on the Guardian website as I write this (09:00).
If you want to also complain, ring the Press Association on: +44 (0)870 120 3200
