A sharp attack at a urban construction site took the life of one man early this afternoon. Officers believe a screwdriver was used in the brutal stabbing. Meanwhile officers in Northern Ireland have a 32-year-old man in custody after a after-dark stabbing left a second person in hospital with serious but stable injuries.
London police are hunting a knife suspect after the attack, before he fled the vicinity. With the situation developing, Gloucestershire officers today arrested two women, aged 28 and 34, over another stabbing in the Forest of Dean area.
Calls for action grow as knife crimes continue to impact local areas.
