CHILLING CCTV footage has emerged showing a masked individual walking in the Banks area of Southport, hours before three children were killed in a mass stabbing. The video, captured just after 11am on Monday morning, appears to show the person wearing a face mask and a green hoodie over their head.
The person is seen walking with their head down, with the CCTV, obtained by ITV, time-stamped at 11.11am. They are seen walking calmly past a street of residential houses on Hoole Lane and appear to glance into the window of a house before walking off camera.
Around half an hour later, three girls were killed after a horror attack at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class in a nearby community centre.
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.
Bebe King, six, Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, and nine-year-old Alice Dasilva Aguiar died in the horror.
