"Paramedics tried to save the 49-year-old man, whom police named as Wayne Broadhurst, but he died after suffering multiple stab wounds. The Met said that Dawood also lived in Midhurst Gardens and that he did not know Broadhurst, the man he is accused of stabbing to death, or the two other people whom he is alleged to have stabbed, who both survived."
"After the incident, Ch Supt Jill Horsfall said: Our thoughts are with the victim's family and friends at this unimaginably difficult time. The incident will have understandably caused concern to the local community. I have deployed multiple officers to the local area, they will be here throughout the week to provide reassurance while detectives work intensely to piece together the circumstances."
"He will appear on Thursday at Westminster magistrates court. Dawood was also charged with possession of an offensive weapon. The case has attracted a high degree of interest, in part because Dawood is an Afghan national who came to the UK and claimed asylum. The Met said: We are aware of speculation on social media around this investigation and would remind media and the public not to share anything that could impede future court proceedings."
A 22-year-old man, Safi Dawood, has been charged with the murder of a 49-year-old man and the attempted murders of a 45-year-old man and a 14-year-old boy after a triple stabbing in Midhurst Gardens, Uxbridge. Paramedics attempted to save the deceased, named as Wayne Broadhurst, who died of multiple stab wounds. The two other victims survived. Dawood, who also lived in Midhurst Gardens, did not know the victims and was charged with possessing an offensive weapon. He required hospital treatment after a medical episode while in custody and has been returned to police custody pending a court appearance. Police warned against social media speculation and deployed officers to reassure the community.
