'Blood was dripping down my head - I feared the worst': Rashford and Alexander-Arnold's brothers speak of moment gunmen burst into cafe in terrifying attack
The brothers of Premier League stars Trent Alexander-Arnold and Marcus Rashford told how they 'feared for their lives' after they had a shotgun pointed at their head and were attacked during a terrifying robbery in a Manchester cafe.
The court heard how Tyler Alexander-Arnold had moved to Manchester just months before the attack, which happened on the morning of January 12 2019, and had found a cafe he particularly liked, Little Rock Caribbean Cafe. He drove his Range Rover with his friends Daniel Payne, Jacob Dunne-Simon, and Tre Gill, to pick up Dane Rashford before heading to Moss Side to have breakfast at the cafe.
But 15 to 20 minutes after arriving, three masked men ran in shouting and making demands for watches, armed with a baseball bat covered in black tape, a machete, and a sawn-off shotgun. "It didn't immediately register what was happening but I felt a hit to the top of my head," Dane said. He says he 'curled up' under the bar while hearing shouts of "give us the watches".
"I have no idea how long it lasted," Tyler said, "I couldn't believe what happened, I could feel blood dripping from my head. I could see my friends were injured as well, the police turned up and then I realised my car had been stolen.
