A knifeman has been charged with attempted murder after he launched a frenzied attack on a family in east London.

Kulvinder Ram, 48, stabbed a woman and her two young children in First Avenue, Dagenham at around 5.30pm on Friday. The youngest victim was aged a mere two years old, whilst his sister, who was also attacked, is eight.

Their brave neighbour, named Davey Holland, 40, forced entry into the property after the boy's mother banged on his door to plead for help. He said: "The mum knocked at my door. It was horrible. She was saying there’s a baby in the house, please help him."
