Leeds stabbing latest as good Samaritan says there was 'blood everywhere' and 'minutes felt like hours'

A Leeds resident has spoken of his friend’s horror after he attempted to stem the blood flow with tea towels as he treated a stab victim. There was “blood everywhere” and the “minutes felt like hours” as he waited for paramedics to arrive at the scene, the resident said.

A pair of teenagers were attacked in a taxi near Hall Lane and Brentwood Terrace, Armley, yesterday (March 31) just before 5.29pm. The pair, aged 18 and 16, were rushed to hospital with serious injuries. Sadly, the 18-year-old was pronounced dead a short time later.

The other victim's injuries were not deemed to be life-threatening. West Yorkshire Police have launched a murder investigation and have said three suspects in another vehicle were responsible for the “violent attack”.
