A woman thought screaming outside her home was teenagers - until she realised her 44-year-old neighbour had been hit in the head with a crossbow.
A woman who was the first on the scene at one of two suspected crossbow attacks police believe are linked has told Sky News of the 'horrific' aftermath. Subera Rabby called an ambulance for her neighbour, a 44-year-old woman who was hit in the head with a crossbow bolt as she crossed the road by Clifton House in Shoreditch, east London, at about 7.44pm on Monday 4 March.
Police are carrying out 'urgent work' to identify a suspect, and extra officers will be deployed to the area over the weekend to 'provide reassurance'. Detective Chief Superintendent James Conway said his team was trying to identify witnesses, studying CCTV footage and keeping the community updated.
