A woman has been stabbed to death and a man killed after being hit by a vehicle in West London.
Police have launched an "urgent investigation" after being called out to Maida Vale about 9am on Monday.
Ambulance crews and firefighters were also sent to reports of a stabbing, and when they arrived they found a man had been hit by a vehicle.
Emergency workers managed to free him but both victims were pronounced dead at the scene.

There seems to be a lot of knife violence in the UK.

Oh that goes without saying on both counts as unfortunate as the case may be.
Some more information that don't exactly clear up the matter or tell us much else below.

People rip the USA for guns. But if you are 80 years old, would you rather live in a society with guns where you can carry one to protect yourself and possibly shoot someone who has their own gun trying to kill you. Or would you rather deal with knives and some drug addict twice your size and half your age trying to kill you?
That basic problem is why I would rather live in a society that's armed to the teeth instead of one where most people are helpless and have to rely on everyone else following the law for you to be kept safe.

We don't really know much about this incident yet, comparatively speaking.
But i tend to agree if some a-hole is running people down with a vehicle probably best to kill him first and ask questions later.
However, and at a glance, it looks like the nutter wanted to be killed hence his "Kill Me" statement to the officer.
If killing him would save more people ok, else why give the dirty wrong'yins what they want and death by cop seems to be rather pertinent.

We may hope for a little cosmic justice-- where the original
knife assailant darted into a little traffic.
