A highly toxic substance was found in Alex Rudakubana's home, police said today
There has been no evidence anyone was exposed to a deadly poison which police said was found at the home of Southport stabbing accused Axel Rudakubana, a public health risk assessment has found. Police today said Rudakubana was charged with a further two offences. Rudakubana was previously charged with the murders of Alice Da Silva Aguiar, nine, Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, and Bebe King, six, following a mass stabbing on Hart Street in Southport on July 29 this year.
However, a senior medical advisor for the UK Health Security Agency has emphasised that, based on the evidence made available to the agency by police, there was no evidence that any victims, responders or members of the public were exposed to Ricin, either as part of the incident at Hart Street or afterwards. Dr Renu Bindra told the press conference: “Early in August, we were informed by the police that Ricin, a very toxic poison, had been found in the suspect’s home.
