Face of kidnapper who was stabbed after abducting 12-year-old boy

This is the face a kidnapper who was stabbed after abducting a 12-year-old boy.

Andrew Cooper was locked up this week after whisking the youngster away on a train in a bizarre series of events. Cheshire Police have now released a custody picture of the 24-year-old.

Liverpool Crown Court heard that the schoolboy, whom he had never met before, and his friend were "chilling" in his flat at around 5pm on July 12 this year after a "chance meeting". They played football and listened to music together before the complainant's friend left at roughly 10pm, leaving him alone in the property.
