Three people have died and three were injured in an attack in the centre of Nottingham yesterday.
In the early hours of Tuesday morning, two students from the University of Nottingham were found stabbed to death on a street to the west of the city centre. Police were called to the scene just after 4 a.m. Today, the two victims have been named as Barnaby Webber and Grace Kumar, both 19.
In a related incident, some time after 5 a.m, a third man in his 50s, who has not been named, was also found dead in a street five minutes away. He appeared to have been stabbed to death.
Police believe the suspect, a 31-year-old man, stole the victim’s van before heading to a third location around 5.30 a.m, where he ploughed into three people, one of whom remains in critical condition in hospital.
