  10. Teen charged with GBH after Milford Haven school stabbing as police confirm injuries were stab wounds

    Detectives say the teenager has been charged with Section 18 Grievous Bodily Harm and possession of a bladed article on school premises. He has been remanded in custody and is due to appear before Swansea Magistrates Court today.

    It comes after officers revealed that injuries initially described as “non‑stab injuries” have now been confirmed as stab wounds following detailed medical assessment.

    ‘Victim being supported after traumatic event’

    Senior Investigating Officer DCI Matthew Briggs said the early description of the injuries was based on “preliminary information” available at the time, but specialist enquiries have since confirmed the wounds were caused by a blade.

    He said the victim — understood to be a member of staff — is continuing to receive support as they recover from what police described as a “traumatic event”.

    The school went into lockdown on Thursday after the incident, with pupils kept in classrooms while officers secured the site. Staff were praised for their calm and professional response.

    Increased police presence to continue

    Police say there will be a higher‑than‑usual presence around the school and surrounding area over the coming days to reassure pupils, parents and staff.

    Officers will also be working with local secondary schools next week to offer support and guidance.

    The school is expected to reopen as planned on Monday, with the headteacher previously telling parents that safety measures and wellbeing support will be in place.

    A community still reeling

    The incident has shocked Milford Haven, with parents describing the lockdown as “terrifying” and pupils reporting a heavy police presence around the site.

    It follows two days of intense speculation online, which police have repeatedly urged the public not to fuel while the investigation continues.

    This latest update confirms the most serious charge available for an assault of this nature, signalling the gravity of the incident and the scale of the ongoing investigation.

  11. Arrest made after manhunt for Carmarthen Park attempted murder suspect

    Dyfed‑Powys Police announced the development this afternoon, four days after launching a large‑scale manhunt across the town and surrounding woodland. Officers had been searching for McKenna since Thursday, when a woman was stabbed just inside the park before fleeing to raise the alarm.

    The force said the arrest follows extensive enquiries and a public appeal issued over the weekend.

    Detective Chief Superintendent Ross Evans said:

    “We would like to thank the media and our communities for assisting our investigation so far.”

    Police confirmed that comments on their public update have been disabled as court proceedings are now active under the Contempt of Court Act.

    The victim, who suffered stab wounds during the attack, is expected to make a full recovery.

    No further details have been released at this stage.

  12. Police recover knife as manhunt for Carmarthen Park suspect enters fifth day

    The 57‑year‑old remains on the run five days after the attack, which left the victim with serious injuries as she fled through the Picton Terrace entrance calling for help. Officers say she is now expected to make a full recovery.

    Dyfed‑Powys Police confirmed today that teams have been working “continuously” across the weekend, carrying out extensive searches inside the park and across surrounding allotments, woodland and wetlands. Specialist dog units, drone pilots and forensic teams have all been deployed as the force widens its search area along the Towy riverbank and locations McKenna is known to visit.

    A knife believed to have been used in the attack has now been recovered, along with a rucksack found during the systematic searches. Detectives are also examining digital and financial activity and have checked with transport operators to establish whether McKenna attempted to leave the area — though officers currently believe he has remained local.

    Detective Chief Superintendent Ross Evans said:

    “I assure that we are doing all we can to locate James McKenna, and that our work has been continuous over the weekend and into today.

    Having processed the initial scenes of interest inside and immediately outside Carmarthen Park, our search areas have expanded to include large wooded areas, the Towy riverbank and places he is known to frequent.

    We do not believe at this time that he has used any mode of transport to leave the area, however if anyone has any information that could suggest otherwise, we urge them to get in touch.”

    He added that the victim, despite suffering multiple stab wounds, is not believed to have life‑changing injuries.

    Detective Chief Superintendent Evans said:

    “We wish her well as she recovers, and are ensuring she is supported both by our officers and external organisations.”

    Police thanked residents for their patience as the large‑scale search continues, with neighbourhood teams remaining in the area to reassure the public.

    McKenna is described as white, 5ft 7in tall, bald with white facial hair, and was last seen wearing a green coat and blue beanie hat.

    Anyone with information is urged to contact police online via the dedicated portal, email [email protected], call 101, or dial 999 in an emergency. Information can also be given anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
