Headingley MP says emotional scars of shocking attack will live on

Alex Sobel spoke following Saturday’s attack in Otley Road that left two women, aged 19 and 31, hospitalised with injuries.

The 38-year-old suspect, Owen Lawrence from Headingley, died on Tuesday from self-infllicted injuries.

Mr Sobel said:

“This weekend, our community was rocked by an unprecedented and senseless act of violence.

“Like so many of you, I was shocked and deeply saddened by what took place.

“I want to sincerely thank West Yorkshire Police for their swift and courageous response, and to pay tribute to the incredible members of the public who stepped forward to help in the midst of such a frightening situation.
