Living at a different address, Zdun left his home and walked through the city before arriving at the Wessex Road property where he knifed both women. Aneta died before paramedics arrived at the scene and Nikoleta died shortly afterwards.

He then attempted to flee the area but was tackled to the ground by workmen who were working nearby. They held on to him until police officers arrived and took over.
