Police have moved the family of Southport attacker Axel Rudakubana for their safety amid ongoing community tensions and speculation about their background
Rudakubana, just 18, was sentenced to at least 52 years for murdering three young girls. He attacked them during a Taylor Swift-themed dance class. It’s heartbreaking to think about what happened that day.
The Community Church leaders spoke out, saying Axel’s dad, Alphonse, was a valued member of their congregation. They wanted to clear up rumors about the family.
The church leaders mentioned that the family is devastated and has been relocated from their home in Banks. They emphasized that the family is not involved in any church activities.
After the attack, there were false claims about Rudakubana’s background. The church leaders confirmed he was born in the UK and had autism. They also noted the community’s support, which shows the town’s true spirit despite the tragedy.
It’s a tough situation for everyone involved, and the community is still healing from the shock of that day.
