A suspect identified by the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) as a Sudanese national was arrested Tuesday over the gruesome Belfast stabbing, footage of which circulated online by the radical right in British politics, later mobilising supporters for large anti-immigration rallies.
In a CBS News report, the suspect was initially presumed to be Somali. The video circulating online reveals a man repeatedly stabbing another in the head and neck while lying in the street. The assault appeared consistent with an attempted decapitation. The video also shows the crowd nearby intercepting before authorities arrived at the scene.
