Knife massacre at 15th birthday party leaves five dead and four wounded after 'killer goes on rampage when girl refuses to have sex'

Knife massacre at 15th birthday party leaves five dead and four wounded after 'killer goes on rampage when girl refuses to have sex'

Daily Mail​28-05-2025

Five people were killed and four more injured after a man allegedly went on a rampage at a child's 15th birthday party when a guest refused to have sex with him.
Seventeen-year-old Mikhail Paramonov is believed to have attacked guests at a country house in Siberia's Baikalsk last night after a 14-year-old girl turned him away.
Friends at the event in Irkutsk region, Russia stood up for the girl after she rejected his advances, and urged him to go to sleep because he was 'drunk'.
But Paramonov, whose parents owned the dacha, was said to have become 'heavily intoxicated' before allegedly attacking and killing four teenagers with a knife.
Children between the ages of 13 and 16 were killed in the attack, TASS reports. Four others among the 14 present were also wounded.
One girl named Veronika, 15, pretended to be dead after being stabbed - which may have saved her life. She ran to a neighbour for help, who called the police.
When the police arrived, they saw the suspect 'naked and holding a knife'.
He ran back into the house and 'opened a gas canister' before setting the house on fire, killing himself, per TASS.
Police found five bodies in the smouldering remains of the house, including four males and one female.
Most of the children had told their parents they would be staying with friends, local media.
Their guardians did not know they had travelled some 125 miles from the regional capital to stay at a 'dacha', or country house, for the party.
Regional law enforcement agencies told the TASS news agency that the private house belonged to the suspect's parents.
Anastasia Sinota, 15, whose birthday was being celebrated, escaped the massacre.
The victims were named locally as Nikolai Malyshev, 13, Vadim Pavlushkin, 14, and Oybek Bondursky, 14.
The wounded were Viktoria 'Vika' Vishnyakova, 14, Veronika Rakitneko, 15, Ruslan Fedotov, 14, and Dmitriy Semyon, 15.
Five safely left the scene of the massacre. One girl, Viktoria, 14, managed to escape just seconds before the gas explosion.
The Russian Investigative Committee has now opened a murder probe into the killing of the four teenagers.
'At some point, one of them attacked those present with a knife,' said a statement.
'As a result, four teenagers died at the scene, and another four were taken to the hospital with various injuries.
'The suspected attacker set the house on fire after the attack and died in the resulting fire.'
Astonishingly, the head of the local administration blamed the stabbing on alcohol consumption.
A former classmate said: 'Everyone is shocked, of course, that [Mikhail] could do such a thing.'
Regional children's ombudswoman Tatyana Afanasyeva said: 'As a result of this terrible crime, five teenagers were killed, including the attacker.
'Four were hospitalised. Three minors are receiving psychological assistance, they are in a state of profound shock.
'One minor was operated on, and may be transported to Irkutsk for further treatment, depending on his condition.'
Regional law enforcement agencies told the TASS news agency that the private house belonged to the suspect's parent
Irkutsk Region Governor Igor Kobzev said one of the victims was seriously wounded.
'The wounded children were hospitalised. A 14-year-old teenager with neck wounds is in extremely serious condition.'
Three days of mourning were declared in Baikalsk after the tragedy unfolded.
An operational headquarters was created in Baikalsk in connection with the incident.

Masked yobs set fire to NI leisure centre ‘used to house locals fleeing riots' as protests hit Ballyrema for 3rd night

MASKED rioters have set fire to a leisure centre reportedly housing evacuated residents in a third day of disorder across Northern Ireland. Hundreds of protesters have gathered across the region tonight yet again as cops gear up for another night of violence. 9 9 9 Social media footage shows masked individuals smashing windows at a leisure centre in Co Antrim and setting fires outside tonight. Local Alliance MLA Danny Donnelly said in a social media post: "Larne leisure centre has been attacked by masked thugs. "Windows smashed and fires lit nearby. Larne does not need this." Posts on social media claimed the leisure centre was housing those who were forced to flee their homes that were smashed and set on fire by yobs. Reports say no one is currently inside the burning building. The initial demonstrations ignited in Ballymena, with the PSNI saying it is 'not clear' if violence is being coordinated in the town. Assistant Chief Constable Ryan Henderson said today: "At this point it's not clear to us or through intelligence or what we're hearing if there's paramilitary coordination to it." Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has condemned the 'mindless attacks' that led to seven people being arrested and 33 cops injured over two nights of carnage. Violence originally erupted on Monday, stemming from an initially peaceful gathering to support a girl and her family after a sexual assault. But within hours of a court appearance of two 14-year-old boys charged with attempted rape, disorder broke out in Co Antrim. A third man, 28, was also arrested over the alleged sexual assault. Families in the town of Ballymena have been forced to flee their homes as the riots - slammed as "racist thuggery" by cops - continue. Crowds set fire to piles of furniture in the middle of the streets, homes were set alight, and multiple cars went up in flames. Harrowing photos from the last two nights show the charred remains of residents' property. Footage showed masked and hooded rioters lobbing petrol bombs, fireworks and bricks at cops trying to calm the unrest yesterday. Officers fired baton rounds and water cannon in a desperate bid to keep the mobs at bay. 9 9 9 On Monday night, 15 officers were injured and seventeen were hurt last night. Yesterday, wheelie bins and sofas were among the objects being dragged out onto the streets, with piles of furniture being set on fire. A child's bike was reportedly thrown over the heads of the crowd. A family including three children revealed they had to hide in their attic on Monday night after thugs broke into their home. Swarms of cops were filmed chasing people while equipped with riot shields. Firefighters were spotted clambering into a house after rioters tried and failed to set it on fire. In a statement, the The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) said calm had been restored around 1am on Wednesday. Some terrified residents said they are preparing to move away with their children for fear of what may unfold next. On Tuesday, many residents placed posters in their windows identifying themselves as British to avoid being targeted. Union Jack flags were also prominently displayed. A hand-written note in one window read: "British residents." A 29-year-old man was arrested on Monday and has been charged with riotous behaviour, disorderly behaviour, attempted criminal damage and resisting police. Six others were arrested last night. The PSNI said: "At this time, all incidents are being treated as racially-motivated hate crimes. "We absolutely condemn these disgraceful attacks on our minority ethnic friends and neighbours. "Those responsible are endangering not only the lives of those inside the properties, but putting themselves at risk of injury." 9 9 9

BREAKING NEWS Leisure Centre 'being used as emergency accommodation for immigrants' goes up in flames after being set on fire by masked yobs: Riot cops swarm streets as Northern Ireland enters its third night of unrest

A leisure centre used as an emergency centre for Romanians has been set on fire by hooded thugs during a third day of 'racist' violence in Northern Ireland. A large group of yobs have torched Larne Leisure Centre in County Antrim, which is believed to have taken in Romanian immigrants to shelter them from this week's riots. PSNI officers have also returned to the streets of Ballymena for the third night in a row after 300 yobs hurled petrol bombs at cops, smashed windows and torched cars yesterday - the day after a peaceful vigil of 2,500 people descended into mayhem. The riots have taken place after two 14-year-old boys - who both required a Romanian interpreter in court - were charged with the attempted oral rape of a teenage girl last weekend. The boys are charged with attempted rape while a third person, aged 28, was been arrested in connection to the investigation on Monday night. Five people were arrested on suspicion of riotous behaviour yesterday, while a male was also arrested on suspicion of disorderly behaviour in Newtownabbey. Distressing footage taken outside Larne Leisure Centre tonight shows a group of hooded thugs setting the building alight. An Emergency Rest Centre was opened at the centre on Tuesday evening by Mid and East Antrim Borough Council, following the rioting in Ballymena which left a number of families in urgent need of temporary shelter. The Council confirmed the activation of the Emergency Rest Centre (ERC) was part of its established emergency response protocols, carried out in collaboration with local partner agencies including emergency services and support organisations. A spokesperson for Mid and East Antrim Borough Council said: 'In line with normal protocols and in collaboration with local agencies, Council received a request to open an Emergency Rest Centre at Larne Leisure Centre last night, to provide emergency shelter for families in urgent need following disturbances in Ballymena. 'The families have all been safely relocated and are no longer availing of the facility.' Last night saw the worst scenes of mass wanton destruction yet that left more police officers injured, with cars set alight and properties smashed up. One of his Senior Team, Assistant Chief Constable Ryan Henderson, said earlier today that the PSNI have redirected a significant number of extra officers into areas affected by two days of violent disorder, the worst of which took place in Ballymena. ACC Henderson labelled the violence over the past two nights as 'racist thuggery targeted at ethnic minorities and police officers'. He added that all footage of incidents was being reviewed and prosecutions would come. Meanwhile, Police Scotland has agreed to a request to send officers, after police in Northern Ireland requested extra support under mutual aid arrangements. The deployment will involve an undisclosed number of public order officers trained to police civil unrest. The PSNI said they have requested 80 officers from other forces in mainland UK. ACC Henderson revealed: 'We're taking steps to increase available resources and are surging a significant number of extra officers, vehicles and equipment to those areas where the rioting is taking place. 'This will have an impact on our communities. This will take away vital resources needed to police other areas. It will have an impact on our ability to serve communities. 'It's hugely important that people realise there are consequences for this.' ACC Henderson said many people woke up this morning 'feeling genuine fear for their lives and their livelihoods'. He added: 'This violence only serves to undermine the criminal investigation and cause further distress and turmoil to a young victim and her family. 'This violence threatens to derail the very pursuit of justice it claims to challenge.' Police said there have also been sporadic incidents of disorder in Carrickfergus, north Belfast and Newtownabbey, where one man was arrested. More demonstrations have been organised across Northern Ireland tonight with fears they will bring with it the potential for more trouble breaking out. One man, 29, has been charged with riotous behaviour, disorderly behaviour, attempted criminal damage and resisting police after Monday's violence. The worst of the trouble has been taking place in Ballymena, mainly in the Clonavon Terrace area but also in nearby thoroughfares Larne Street and Queen Stree. Police officers came under sustained attack over a number of hours with multiple petrol bombs, heavy masonry, bottles and fireworks lobbed in their direction. ACC Henderson said: 'There were people who were intent on violence right from the off, so that says to me that there was pre-planning involved from those who wanted to attack us. 'A number of other protests, attacks on homes and disorder took place in Belfast, Lisburn, Coleraine, Carrickfergus and Newtownabbey.' Authorised officers discharged a number of Attenuating Energy Projectiles (AEPs) - a police source told MailOnline it was at least 20 - and two water cannons were also deployed in an attempt to disperse the crowds. Some homes in the trouble-torn epicentre of the Harryville estate have begun displaying stickers outlining the residents' nationalities such as 'Filipino lives here' alongside Union Jack stickers and flags. Businesses and houses were attacked and damaged and a number of vehicles were also set on fire in the area. Even some homes with Union Jack flags on display fell victim to broken windows leaving local residents caught in the crossfire as a baying mob targeted properties were they believed non-nationals and migrants were living. At a press conference earlier today, police said it was 'not clear' if paramilitaries are coordinating rioting in Ballymena. The Harryville estate would be considered a loyalist area. ACC Henderson added: 'At this point it's not clear to us or through intelligence or what we're hearing if there's paramilitary coordination to it.' Meanwhile, Northern Ireland Secretary Hilary Benn is planning to visit Ballymena, it has been announced. Lady Anderson, speaking in the House of Lords today, said the Cabinet minister was having 'active conversations' with both the Stormont administration and the PSNI. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said he 'utterly condemns' the violence and called them 'mindless attacks'. Northern Ireland's First Minister Michelle O'Neill said what was happening in Ballymena was 'pure racism, there's no other way to dress it up', while the Deputy First Minister Emma Little-Pengelly said the violence was 'serving no purpose whatsoever' and was only damaging communities.
