Two officers were seriously hurt, and two members of the public also had hospital treatment.
“This case related to a period of about 20 minutes or so relatively early in the morning of 30 April,” stated prosecutor Tom Little, KC, earlier.
None of the people the defendant attacked had any prior knowledge of them.
In actuality, there are five distinct instances. The first is an attempted murder in which the victim was intentionally struck by the defendant’s van.
He was launched into some gardens at a considerable distance. After the defendant exited the van brandishing a sword, the victim said, “I don’t know you.”
