A serious bloody crime took place in Nottingham, England, on Tuesday.

Three people were killed and others injured, some seriously.

The police are still looking for the motive of the perpetrator.
Investigators in Nottingham on Wednesday gathered further details of the deadly knife attack and the suspect’s subsequent car attack on pedestrians. The BBC and other British media reported the 31-year-old suspect was from West Africa, had lived in the UK for years and had no criminal record. According to police, he acted alone. His motive was still unclear. His mental health was also checked.
That’s how it happened
The perpetrator had stabbed a female and a male student on Tuesday morning, who were both 19 years old. Then, according to police, he killed a 65-year-old school janitor about a mile from the first crime scene, stole his car and drove it into a group of pedestrians. He injured three people. One of them was in critical condition. The anti-terror police were involved in the investigation.
Did no act of terrorism
However, the act was not classified as an act of terrorism, as Interior Secretary Suella Braverman emphasized again. The police are “working flat out to clarify the entire matter and provide support to all those affected,” said Braverman in the House of Commons. Police said on Wednesday the perpetrator tried to enter a nursing home after attacking the students, but was stopped by residents.
Worship service in Nottingham
Many students from Nottingham University attended a memorial service. Friends and relatives recalled the enthusiasm for sports of their dead fellow students. “Complete bewilderment is not enough to describe our pain and loss at the senseless murder of our son,” said the 19-year-old’s family. The son of the slain caretaker said his father was about to retire and was teaching underprivileged children to fish.
