A third child died yesterday from a mass stabbing at a Taylor Swift-themed dance event in northern England that Prime Minister Keir Starmer said “touches a nerve” with the whole country.
Starmer was among a stream of people to pay tribute at the site of Monday’s knife attack in Southport, near Liverpool, that left five children and two adults with critical wounds.
Three other children were hurt. Laying flowers with hundreds of other wreaths, Starmer thanked emergency workers who responded to the stabbing spree and said: “I came here to pay my respects to the victims and families who are going through raw pain and grief that most of us can’t imagine - I can’t imagine, as a dad myself.”
However, he was heckled by a handful of by-standers as he laid flowers, with one man shouting: “How many more people will die on our streets, prime minister?”
Nine-year-old Alice Dasilva Aguiar died in hospital early yesterday, police said. Bebe King aged six and Elsie Dot Stancombe aged seven were the two who died Monday.
