ALL the children who were injured during the stabbings in Southport have been discharged from hospital.

At around 11.50am on Monday, July 29 Merseyside Police were called to reports of “multiple stabbings” at a property in Hart Street where a Taylor Swift-themed dance event was taking place.

The fully-booked club for children, which was advertised as a dance and yoga workshop as well as bracelet-making, quickly became something “like a horror movie”, witnesses to the deadly stabbings have said.

Three children died as a result of the stabbings with Merseyside Police confirming the names of the three girls who were tragically killed as six-year-old Bebe King, seven-year-old Elsie Dot Stancombe, and nine-year-old Alice Dasilva Aguiar.

Now the Liverpool children’s hospital has confirmed that five children have been released from their care.

A statement read: “We are really pleased to be able to share that all the children involved in last Monday’s awful incident in Southport who were under our care have now been safely discharged home from Alder Hey.

“We would like to take this opportunity to thank all those involved in responding to the incident or caring for anyone affected by it, especially our colleagues in the NHS, Merseyside Police and North West Ambulance Service.

"We also want to say thank you to all who sent well wishes to Alder Hey and to the families affected.

“Our heartfelt sympathies remain with all those impacted by last week’s tragic events.”

Axel Rudakubana, 17-years-old, from Banks in Lancashire, appeared at Liverpool Crown Court charged with three counts of murder, 10 counts of attempted murder and possession of a bladed article.

He will next appear at Liverpool Crown Court on October 25 for a pre-trial preparation hearing.
