The 22-year-old killed one man and injured two others, including a 14-year-old boy
A 22-year-old man has been charged with murder after a triple stabbing in Uxbridge. Safi Dawood, 22, is charged with murdering Wayne Broadhurst as well as two counts of attempted murder in relation to the incident in Midhurst Gardens, Uxbridge, on Monday, the Crown Prosecution Service said.
Dawood, of Midhurst Gardens, has also been charged with one count of possession of an offensive weapon. He will appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Thursday.
Jaswant Narwal, Chief Crown Prosecutor for CPS London North, said: “Following the shocking triple stabbing which took place in Uxbridge on Monday evening, the Crown Prosecution Service has today announced Safi Dawood, 22, has been charged with the murder of Wayne Broadhurst and the attempted murder of two others.
“Our prosecutors have worked to establish that there is sufficient evidence to bring the case to court and that it is in the public interest to pursue criminal proceedings.
“We have worked closely with the Metropolitan Police Service as they carried out their investigation.”
The Metropolitan Police have confirmed in a statement that Safi Dawood and Wayne Broadhurst were not known to one another. Two other people – a 45-year-old man, who remains in hospital with life-changing injuries, and a 14-year-old boy, who has been discharged from hospital with neither life-changing nor life-threatening injuries – were known to Safi Dawood.
