LONDON (Reuters) - Police identified four men on Tuesday whom they suspected of carrying out last week's bombings, raising the prospect that western Europe may have suffered its first suicide attack.

Police said it was "very likely" that one suspect had died in the blasts on London's transport network, which killed at least 52 people and injured 700, and were trying to work out if all four bombers had blown themselves up deliberately.

If they did, it would be the first time that suicide bombers, who have wreaked carnage from the streets of New York to Israel and Iraq, have struck in western Europe.
