A man has been charged with attempted murder after a mum was stabbed at Notting Hill Carnival while she was with her child at the event’s ‘family day’.
Shakiel Thibou, 20, was arrested in Hammersmith and Fulham yesterday morning after the 32-year-old was ‘caught up in the most awful violence’.
She remains in a critical condition.
Two other men, 24-year-old Sheldon and Shaeim Thibou, 22, were charged with violent disorder and assaulting an emergency worker.
All three will appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court today.
Commander Charmain Brenyah, the Met’s spokesperson for Notting Hill Carnival, said: ‘Our thoughts, first and foremost, are with the woman who is fighting for her life in hospital and with her loved ones.
‘She came to Carnival to have fun, with her young child, and was caught up in the most awful violence.’
Officers were called to Golborne Rod at 6pm on Sunday after the Carnival policing operation became aware of a woman who had been stabbed.
Deputy Assistant Commissioner Ade Adelekan, who was in charge of the policing operation at the event, said: ‘We saw the first day of Carnival marred by unacceptable violence.
‘This was supposed to be “family day” – a celebration suitable for all ages. One of those in hospital, a 32-year-old woman whose condition remains critical, was at Carnival with her young child.’
