Southport attack: Rudakubana leaves court after being named

A 17-year-old charged with the murder of three girls in a knife attack at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class has departed from court, where a judge ruled he could be named.

Axel Rudakubana, from Banks in Lancashire, wore a grey tracksuit which he pulled up to cover much of his face when he appeared at Liverpool Crown Court on Thursday morning.
