A HOMELESS migrant who “furiously and repeatedly” stabbed an 11-year-old girl visiting London for a Taylor Swift concert, has been detained indefinitely.

Romanian Ioan Pintaru, 33, held the girl in a headlock and stabbed her eight times in the random attack as she walked through Leicester Square with her mother.

The girl, who had travelled from Australia to see Swift perform her Eras Tour show at Wembley in August last year, thought she was going to die, the Old Bailey was told.
