2:20Now PlayingA 17-year-old boy charged with murder and attempted murder after a mass stabbing in Southport has appeared in court and been named as Axel Rudakubana.
Three children, six-year-old Bebe King, seven-year-old Elsie Dot Stancombe and nine-year-old Alice Dasilva Aguiar, were killed in the attack at The Hart Space community centre.
Rudakubana, who is from a nearby village in Lancashire, but was born in Cardiff, Wales, was arrested on Monday.
Because he is under 18, the defendant would usually be granted anonymity - however, in an "exceptional" decision, Judge Andrew Menary KC decided his identity could be made public.
