suspected knife murderer was arrested on a London

Crime reporter,London(wp/es)::: A suspected knife murderer was arrested on a London bus today after one woman was fatally stabbed, another critically injured and a teenage girl seriously hurt. A man aged 40 was detained in the early hours by Met officers who boarded the bus in Streatham after a manhunt lasting several hours. Neighbours said the primary school age son of the dead woman saw his mother being stabbed to death as he got ready for his evening bath, before fleeing covered in blood. Another witness described seeing another woman shouting “please no” and “help me, it’s murder” before being grabbed by the neck and having a kitchen knife plunged into her back. Blood was still visible this afternoon on the windows and flat of a balcony where that attack took place. The horrific scenes were discovered by police when they were called to two addresses in Brixton yesterday evening. At the first, in Redlands Way, police found a woman aged 46 with stab wounds and other injuries. She was in a critical condition in hospital today. Half an hour later at another home in nearby Tilson Gardens officers found a 28-year-old woman dead from stab wounds. A 17-year-old relative of the woman was found there. She had been knifed. Both the older women are believed to be either current or ex-partners of the man arrested. At the Redlands Way stabbing a local woman who did not want to be named, told how she confronted the attacker after watching him “hack” his victim many times. The sports science graduate, aged 22, said: “I was in the park and looked up to the balcony and this guy was hitting her with a butcher’s cleaver. I shouted, ‘How can you do that?’. He said, ‘Keep out of other people’s business’. The man fled and the witness ran to the second floor to find the woman with multiple injuries. She said: “She had many stab wounds, to her back, lots of chops to her head and neck and all the fingers on her right hand were broken. She was just saying, ‘My neck’s bleeding’. ” The woman said the victim’s daughter was sitting on the sofa in a trance-like state watching CBeebies. As police sought to calm residents, some today told of the distressing scenes that they had witnessed. Sandra Scheck, 46, a mother-of-two who lives near the woman who died in Tilson Gardens, said: “The children were playing outside. Suddenly my six-year-old daughter knocked at the door shouting, ‘Mum, come and see, blood’.  “Her son then came to see me and was naked but for a towel, covered in blood and asking for his bath. He said that he saw a man with a knife and was making stabbing gestures. My daughter was in total shock at what she had witnessed and we were up all night looking after her and letting her know that everything will be okay.” The victim’s son was today understood to be under the care of the local authority. A witness also saw the attack on the 46-year-old woman as she shouted for help. Describing the incident, the woman, who did not want to be named, said: “All of sudden the kids started screaming and running off. I looked up and saw a man. He had her by the scruff of the neck. She was saying, ‘Please no’ and then ‘help me, help me, it’s murder’. The next thing I know he stuck the knife in her back, right there on the balcony. It was in the top of her back near the shoulders.” Police were today patrolling nearby streets in an attempt to reassure residents and said they believed that the arrest on the bus had ended any threat to the public. Detective Inspector Will Reynolds said: “We are confident that there are no outstanding suspects.” Officers tracked down the suspect to a bus in Leigham Court Road in Streatham shortly before 1am. He was arrested on suspicion of murder and was today in a south London police station.

Track star Weir is planning to hit the road

sports reporter,wp/es::: David Weir will leave the track aside to focus on his road-racing ambitions following his world record time at the Olympic Stadium yesterday, writes Matt Majendie. Weir brought the curtain down on the three-day Sainsbury’s Anniversary Games with a dominant victory, crossing the line 10 seconds clear of his closest rival to win the T54 invitation mile. This week, he will head for a rare family holiday — two weeks in St Tropez, France — and will then turn his attention to the Great North Run on 15 September. If successful in the event, Weir will return to the New York Marathon for the first time since 2010, although he has yet to commit to organisers. “I’m definitely doing the Great North Run but I’m not sure about New York,” he said. “We will see. “I’ve missed a big block of winter training. If I do the Great North Run and training goes well then I will go to New York. If not, I will make other plans. I will talk to my coach Jenny [Archer].” Weir’s season has been far less high profile than last year when he won four Paralympic gold medals in the 800m, 1,500m, 5,000m and marathon. He has kept his competition to a minimum in 2012, opting to spend more time with his girlfriend, Emily, and his children, Ronie, Mason and Tillia. He raced the London Marathon but failed to add to his previous six wins and lost out to arch rival Marcel Hug at the event in Birmingham last month. As a result of being rooted in the UK for this year, it meant he missed last week’s IPC World Championships in Lyon, France, a decision he defended after his latest victory. “My plan to pull out came earlier this year,” he said. “But watching it I saw a lot, I was able to see more racing than ever before, including watching Marcel’s tactics. “But I was so happy for the team to do really well without me. I thought that was a weight off my shoulders. I didn’t want to go there with the thought that everyone was expecting me to win medals.” Weir and 100m sprinter Jonnie Peacock were the star attractions on a day of Paralympic action. Peacock, however, had to make do with third place behind Alan Oliveira and Richard Browne in the 100m. Browne argued after the event that amputee runners could get below the 10-second mark for the race but Peacock dismissed the suggestion. “No, never,” he said, when asked if it was possible. “He’s got great talent but I think 10.5 would be a great time for an amputee to run.”

Record surge in lending to small firms boosts recovery

evening standard report:::: A record rise in small business loans gave more cheer for the economy today as momentum builds behind efforts to unlock credit markets. Bank of England figures revealed a £238 million increase in lending to small businesses during June — the highest since the Bank began collecting the data two years ago, and bucking a £1.3 billion decline in business lending overall. June’s rise failed to reverse fully a £476 million fall in lending during the previous month, but comes after changes to the Bank’s Funding for Lending Scheme in April, which massively incentivised banks to lend to small businesses until the end of the year. The Bank defines small and medium sized businesses as those with a turnover of less than £25 million. The brighter news on politically sensitive small business lending marks more good news for the Chancellor after the wider economy managed to double the pace of growth to 0.6% between April and June. IHS Global Insight said: “The rise in bank lending may also be a sign that smaller companies are starting to step up their borrowing as recently improving economic activity lifts their confidence and need for capital.” The average cost of new loans for businesses also fell sharply by 0.23% to 2.41%, the cheapest overall rate since December 2010. A Federation of Small Business spokesman added: “This is encouraging news but there is still a way to go. Our most recent survey showed 50% of our members still being refused credit although the benefits of the FLS are slowly beginning to feed through.” Despite the boost for small businesses, mortgage approvals surprisingly dipped over the month to 57,667, nearly 2,000 short of City hopes. The FLS has had far more impact on mortgage lending so far and while the Government’s Help to Buy scheme gave the market a further kick. Shoppers are meanwhile still showing signs of caution after consumer credit rose by a net £489 million in June, well below May’s £781 million and the smallest rise since January. Berenberg chief economist Rob Wood said: “The mortgage data are likely to be a blip given how strong housing surveys are and how much stimulus is in the pipeline. “We are optimistic about the UK’s chances of continued recovery, but today’s data highlight the risks. Any reduction in household’s appetite for spending rather than saving would weigh heavily on the recovery.”

a person executive principal of a federation of five primary schools suspended!!!!

educational reporter(crime),London(wp/es)::: A superhead described by education secretary Michael Gove as “magnificent” has been suspended after it emerged that his boyfriend heads a company that provides IT services to his schools. Greg Wallace was suspended as executive principal of a federation of five primary schools in Hackney, east London, last week. IT services were supplied to the schools, which were poised to become a chain of academies, by C2 Technology, a firm headed by Tony Zangoura, Wallace’s boyfriend. The governors of the federation — who include Henry de Zoete, one of Gove’s special advisers — also had their powers suspended. The news of the suspensions, following an investigation by Hackney council, is a blow to Gove and his flagship academy programme. In a recent speech Gove lauded Wallace as one of seven “magnificent” head teachers. He said Wallace’s pupils, who come from the poorest parts of the borough, had benefited “from a rigorous approach to reading in the early years that makes them enthusiastic devourers of every book they can get their hands on”. The schools have appealed to Gove to step in amid claims that Wallace’s suspension may be an attempt by the council to prevent the schools becoming academies. In an email to school staff Zangoura accuses the Hackney Learning Trust, responsible for the day-to-day running of the borough’s schools, of “going on a fishing expedition within the schools to find dirt”. He insists he and Wallace were not together in 2009 when the IT contract was awarded. He said: “They identified that my company, C2 Technology, was given the vast majority of ICT work and, given the well-known fact that I have a close relationship with Greg, thought there might be a vulnerability there.” The National Union of Teachers, which went on strike at one of the five schools last year, has warned that allowing the federation to become academies could disadvantage the other 48 primary schools in Hackney. All five schools, which have 2,000 pupils between them, have improved during Wallace’s five years in charge. One of them, Whitmore Primary School, was ranked outstanding this year by Ofsted, the school regulator. Peter Passam, acting chair of the federation governing body, said: “Greg Wallace was always open with me about his connection with C2 Technology. “The contract was judged on its value and its quality. We have been very satisfied with the work that has given the children access to modern technology at a competitive price.” The Department for Education said it could not comment while the investigation was going on. It noted that any decision to intervene would be taken by a minister other than Gove.

3 punished 44 years in prison for Upton acid attack

crime reporter,east London(wp/es)::: Three men have been jailed after being found guilty of an acid plot which left a mother suffering horrendous burns to her face and body. Yannick Ntesa, 25, Abdul Motin, 28, and Ahad Miah, 31, have been sentenced to a total of 44 years in prison for the attack in March 2011. The victim, who does not wish to be named, was walking home from Upton Cross Primary School with her six-year-old twin sons when she saw a man approach her “with something in a bottle”. She told her local paper: “I saw a man approach me who was carrying something in a bottle. “He threw it over me and after a few seconds it started burning. I was crying: ‘Please help me! Please help me! Everyone was shocked.” Her attacker, who had been driven to the scene with the other two men, poured acid over her head burning her face, scalp, chest and back. Witnesses on the busy street described seeing the man laugh as he carried out the attack. The desperate woman fled to a neighbour’s house where she was assisted by friends and police officers before being taken to the Royal London Hospital and later transferred to a specialist burns hospital in Essex. She suffered 16 per cent full depth chemical burns for which she still receives treatment and describes living every day in discomfort. Following a six week trial at Blackfriars Crown Court, a jury found all three defendants guilty of conspiracy to cause grevious bodily harm and throwing corrosive fluid on another with intent to cause grevious bodily harm. Ntsea and Miah have been jailed for 14 years and Motin for 16 years. Detective Inspector John Reynolds, of Newham CID, said: “This was a truly shocking attack on a mother who had her two very young children with her at the time. It was only by chance that those children were not seriously injured. They did however suffer terrible shock from seeing their own mother so horrifically assaulted. “The victim in this case is entirely innocent but will now spend the rest of her life having to adjust to the severe disfigurement inflicted on her.” In April a 28-year-old woman, named as Tara, answered the door of her home in Romford, east London, to a stranger who returned half an hour after she told him she could not help him and squirted acid in her face. Another woman, Naomi Oni, 21, had acid thrown in her face after getting off a bus in Lodge Avenue, Dagenham, in the early hours of December 30 last year.

Borough High Street bank robbery gunman relase!!!

crime reporter,Greater London(wp/es)::: An alleged gunman seized by members of the public after a failed bank raid was on day release from jail, it is understood. A suspect, wielding what appeared to be an AK47 assault rifle, is claimed to have threatened staff at Barclays in Borough High Street and demanded cash before fleeing empty-handed. Passers-by chased the man, still brandishing the gun, through the 17th-century pub the George Inn, sending about 40 drinkers diving for cover. Security staff at Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospital joined the chase and the suspect was hauled to the ground. He was being questioned at a south London police station today. The Ministry of Justice refused to comment on claims that he was a prisoner on day release. Teresa Byrne, 20, who works at a coffee shop near the spot where the suspect was apprehended, said: “I heard lots of shouting and saw people going full pelt after this guy. Three people jumped on him to get him to the ground. Crowds of people came out of the hospital to take a look.” Minutes later armed police arrived and arrested the gunman, described as black, bearded and wearing a baseball cap, yards from the entrance to the hospital. ITV journalist Darren Burn, 27, said he was having “a nice quiet drink” with friends at the George Inn when the gunman came running through. “At first I thought it was some kind of stunt, but then they shouted, ‘Get down he’s got a gun,’” he said. “There was no screaming or shouting, it was just deadly silent and we all got down on the floor.” Sam Luck, 29, manager at the nearby Heeltap bar, said: “One of my customers reckoned he got hit in the street by a vehicle and might have been limping a bit. There were quite a few people chasing him.” Police said a weapon was recovered and is being examined to determine whether it was a real firearm or an imitation. Scotland Yard praised the bravery of those who tackled the gunman. A spokeswoman said: “No shots were fired and no members of the public were injured.” Inquiries are ongoing but no one else is being sought in connection with the incident, she added.
