The mother of a 19-year-old boy stabbed to death in the Nottingham attacks has paid tribute to her “beautiful boy” during a vigil for the three victims.

Emma Webber told the crowd: “Please hold no hate to any race, colour, sex or religion in your heart… My beautiful boy – you have my, your dad and your brother’s heart forever.”

David Mellen, leader of Nottingham City Council, led a minute’s silence and family members of those killed on Tuesday shared memories of their loved ones at the city’s Old Market Square.

Police earlier revealed the man suspected of the triple murders in Nottingham is a former student of a university in the city – as detectives were granted another 36 hours to question him.

A 31-year-old man was tasered and arrested on suspicion of murder and remains in custody.

University of Nottingham students Grace O’Malley-Kumar and Barnaby Webber, both 19, were found stabbed to death in Ilkeston Road at around 4am on Tuesday.

School caretaker Ian Coates, 65, who was described by his sons as “everyone’s friend”, was then found dead in Magdala Road after his van was allegedly stolen by the suspect.

Another three people were hurt, one critically, when they were run over by a van.
