Apparently overnight a guy stabbed 2 people to death in Ilkeston Road (just near the university campus) then walked off into the city, stole a van, and ran over 2 people in the city centre near the Victoria Centre, then was arrested with the van by the forest recreation where the goose fair usually is to the north of the city centre. A third person was found dead in Mapperley Park, about 5-10mins drive from where the van was found, but it's not clear how that fits together chronologically.


1 person has been arrested, who they think was behind all three attacks, but that's about all which is known so far, it's not thought to be terrorism though counter-terrorism officers have been involved (I guess part of their role is to be clear of that fact). Does sound like either targeted violence or someone particularly unhinged for some reason decided to cause some harm, to me, as opposed to actually terrorism.
