After the findings came in, the British Prime Minister David Cameron acknowledged the British Army had fired the first shot and killed unarmed civilians.2.50pm: Marchers leave Creggan Drive and set off for the city centre, with hundreds joining in at almost every turn. 3.55pm: Before the main shooting incident and at a location away from both the riot and march, two soldiers in a derelict building on William Street fire a number of rounds after claiming they had come under attack. An Official IRA member is believed to have fired at the building during this incident.
