Reuters reported that after British lawmaker Jo Cox was shot dead in the street in her constituency on Thursday, the campaign to keep Britain from leaving the European Union said it would suspend its activities this weekend.
“In light of this awful news, we have suspended our campaign for today and tomorrow," Will Straw, executive director of Stronger In Europe said in a post on Facebook.
Jo Cox was left bleeding on the ground by her attacker; police apprehended a man near the scene.
