The vibrant city of Nottingham, in central England, awoke last Tuesday to a scream of horror. At four in the morning, a man assaulted and stabbed two university students, Barnaby Webber and Grace Kumar, when they returned home, in the Ilkeston Road area (to the west), after a night out. They were the first victims of an attack that continued later in two other points different from the city.
An hour later, in Magdala Road (to the north), a man in his 50s was killed and a white van ran over several people who were waiting at the bus stop a few streets away. Two suffered minor injuries and a third is currently admitted in critical condition.
From the outset, the local police have treated the three incidents as the same attack. “The investigation is in its early stages and a team of detectives is working to establish exactly what happened,” Commissioner Kate Meynell said Tuesday.
