Lone JU88 3rd May 1941 over Dry Drayton?

Hi All

Apologies if this sort of request has been covered before!

I'm looking for any German records of a JU88 that (apparently) was flying over/near Dry Drayton at around 02:30 on the 3rd May 1941. This aircraft apparently attacked a Stirling bomber flying back to its Oakington base.

I'd like to know all about this event if it happened. The date and time should be right but around that date time might be interesting too.
In the event that no-one has all the answers (worth a try) how would one go about finding this information?

I would like to find out this information as the Stirling that crashed narrowly missed my Mother! I'd like to know if a JU88 was actually involved in the incident and to what extent.

Not so important, but has anyone got info on a similar scenario but on the 20th April 1941 at nearby Stambourne? This incident involved the same crew whose Stirling (apparently) (crash) landed on a Q-site and was bombed by the JU88.

Many Thanks

James
