A man in his 50s and two students were killed in three shocking attacks before most of the city woke up on Tuesday morning
Petra Gyuricska was getting a lift to work early on Tuesday when she suddenly ordered her husband, Miklos Toldi, to stop the car – there was a man lying motionless outside Magdala tennis club. It is not the sort of thing you see very often at 5.30am in Mapperley Park, one of Nottingham’s leafiest suburbs.
“I thought maybe someone was drunk,” said the 39-year-old, “and then we saw the blood.” Another passerby called 999 and two police cars were quickly on the scene on Magdala Road, followed by an ambulance. “They started doing CPR but you could just see…” Her voice dropped as she recalled the awful scene.
