<p>A man in Nottingham on Tuesday (Nov 28) admitted to killing three people and attempting to murder three others in a spate of attacks in the city in June. According to a report by the news agency AFP, Valdo Calocane, 32, pleaded not guilty to murder but pleaded guilty to manslaughter due to diminished responsibility.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Calocane's lawyer Peter Joyce said his client "does not dispute the physical facts of the prosecution's case". However, Joyce told the Nottingham Crown Court that he was suffering from "extreme" mental illness at the time.</p>

<p>The case was adjourned until January 16 next year, after the prosecution requested more time to decide if the pleas were acceptable, AFP reported.</p>

<h2><strong>The June attacks&nbsp;</strong></h2>

<p>On June 13, two 19-year-old students at Nottingham University - Grace O’Malley-Kumar and Barnaby Webber - and a school caretaker Ian Coates aged 65 were stabbed to death in early morning attacks. Three pedestrians in the city centre were also injured after they were mowed&nbsp;down by a van allegedly stolen from Coates. The attacks resulted in the police locking down the entire city.</p>

<p>Calcone, a former student of engineering at the university, was arrested when he abandoned the vehicle and approached officers with a knife. On June 16, the 32-year-old man was charged with three counts of murder.</p>

<p>“These charges are a significant development and arise as a result of our thorough investigation into these horrific incidents that occurred in our city,” Nottinghamshire Chief Constable Kate Meynell said.</p>

<p>In a statement, Nottingham University said that it was devastated that the attacker was its former student.&nbsp;</p>

UK police charge Nottingham stabbing suspect with three counts of murder

<p>England's men's and women's players will wear black armbands on Day One of their Test match&nbsp;against Australia this month as a tribute to victims of a stabbing and van attack in the English city of Nottingham, the country's cricket board (ECB) said on Thursday.</p>

<p>A minute's silence will be observed before the men's opening Ashes Test at Edgbaston on Friday, as well as the women's one-off test against Australia in Nottingham from June 22-26.</p>

<p>"The deeply distressing scenes witnessed in Nottingham this week have brought immense sorrow to everyone, particularly the cherished friends and families of the victims," England men's test captain Ben Stokes said. "It is impossible to express how much their lives and futures have been tragically disrupted."</p>

<p>"These events sadden the England cricket teams, and we are thinking about those affected at this harrowing time. As a gesture of respect, we will honour them by wearing black armbands."</p>

<p>Three people died and another was left in a critical condition after the attack. One of the teenage victims, Grace Kumar, had played hockey for England's Under-18 team and cricket for Woodford Wells Cricket Club and her fellow student Barnaby Webber was said to be a keen cricketer.</p>

<p>"It was incredibly saddening to learn about the events that took place in Nottingham, and it felt a bit closer to home to learn that two of the victims had been cricket players," England women's captain Heather Knight said.</p>

<h2><strong>Ashes begins Friday</strong></h2>

<p>England and Australia gear up for the iconic Ashes, with the hosts waiting to stamp authority on their Aussie counterparts. With England already announcing their XI ahead of the first day's play, it reflects their confidence in Bazball - an attacking brand of cricket that had put the cricketing world on notice.</p>

<p>Meanwhile, Australia is undecided on whom to pick between Scott Boland and Josh Hazlewood for that one spot. While Hazlewood was rested for the recently-contested WTC Final against India on precautionary grounds and remains the frontrunner to return to XI on experience, Boland's latest run of form will make it incredibly hard for captain Cummins to drop him.</p>

<p><strong>Here is England's confirmed Playing XI for the first Ashes Test -</strong></p>

<p>Ben Duckett, Zak Crawley, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Harry Brook, Ben Stokes, Jonny Bairstow, Moeen Ali, Stuart Broad, Ollie Robinson and James Anderson</p>

<p><strong>Here is Australia's Predicted XI for the first Ashes Test -</strong></p>

Injured Nottingham van attack victims in stable condition

<p>Photo-bombing and video-bombing can be a matter of fun. But all jokes have a time and place.

A woman video-bombed a news reporter who was reporting from Nottingham about the murder.</p>

<p>The Sky News reporter's ordeal has been caught on camera and the video has been shared widely on social media. In the video, the woman can be seen attempting to dance behind the reporter and even waving her hands.

Watch: Netizens angry after woman video-bombs Nottingham attack report

<p>UK interior minister Suella Braverman, on Wednesday, urged people to not make any assumptions following the stabbing incident in Nottingham, central England, that claimed the lives of three people.</p>

<p>Her appeal came after claims were being circulated on the internet about the identity of the 31-year-old man arrested on suspicion of murder on Tuesday.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"It's completely natural to seek answers immediately when something terrible happens, but it's also vital that those answers are wholly accurate," Braverman told MPs.</p>

<p>"Speculating out loud is never helpful and runs the risk of being counterproductive," she added. "The police have asked for patience while the inquiries continue."</p>

<p>The police have not yet revealed the name of the man arrested and have also not commented on his background.</p>

<p>Braverman assured that anti-terrorism police were helping Nottinghamshire police in the investigation, "though this does not mean that it is currently being treated as a terrorist attack".</p>

<p>Two students, aged 19 and a 65-year-old man were stabbed to death. The police believe that the suspect stole&nbsp;the van of the older victim and then rammed it into three other people, injuring one critically.</p>

UK interior minister Suella Braverman, on Wednesday, urged people to not make any assumptions following the stabbing incident in Nottingham, central England, that claimed the lives of three people.

UK interior minister Suella Braverman, on Wednesday, urged people to not make any assumptions following the stabbing incident in Nottingham, central England, that claimed the lives of three people. Her appeal came after claims were being circulated on the internet about the identity of the 31-year-old man arrested on suspicion of murder on Tuesday. "It's completely natural to seek answers immediately when something terrible happens, but it's also vital that those answers are wholly accurate," Braverman told MPs. "Speculating out loud is never helpful and runs the risk of being counterproductive," she added. "The police have asked for patience while the inquiries continue." The police have not yet revealed the name of the man arrested and have also not commented on his background. Braverman assured that anti-terrorism police were helping Nottinghamshire police in the investigation, "though this does not mean that it is currently being treated as a terrorist attack". Two students, aged 19 and a 65-year-old man were stabbed to death. The police believe that the suspect stole the van of the older victim and then rammed it into three other people, injuring one critically.
