Ice cream man stabbed to death in north-west London named by police
An ice cream seller who was stabbed to death in north-west London has been named by the Metropolitan Police as 41-year-old Shazad Khan. Mr Khan was pronounced dead at the scene after officers responded to reports of an altercation in Monks Park in Wembley at 6.10pm on Tuesday. His family have been informed and a murder investigation was launched, the Met said. A 26-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder in the early hours of Wednesday, while a 31-year-old woman was also arrested at the scene for conspiracy to murder, the force said. Both individuals remain in custody. Local residents told the PA news agency that Mr Khan was well known in the area for selling ice creams in a van. Asim Mahmood Butt, 39, who lives in nearby Tokyngton Avenue, said he was childhood friends with the victim. Speaking at the scene, he said: 'I got a call from one of my cousins. 'This guy, we know him – he's a famous ice cream guy. He got stabbed yesterday. 'I came here and his body was still here, and police had cordoned off the area. 'We don't know the reason why, but all that we know is that a guy with a grey hoodie stabbed him eight times. That's what I've been told. 'I know his brothers as well – they're all local. We all used to play cricket and football here in Monks Park. 'He started (selling) ice cream about a year ago.' Mr Butt said the victim was married and had a young daughter. The victim's ice cream van, which had been parked on the road at the time of the incident, was well known locally for having a large teddy bear, the witness added. A second witness, who did not want to be named, said the ice cream van was towed away from the scene in the early hours of Wednesday morning. A blue forensics tent and a number of Met officers could be seen inside a police cordon in Monks Park on Wednesday afternoon. Removal vehicles also took away a separate white van and blue car. Detective Chief Superintendent Luke Williams, local policing commander for north-west London, said: 'Our thoughts remain with Shazad's family and friends at this unimaginably difficult time. 'This incident will rightly cause concern across the community, but intelligence at this stage leads us to believe there is no wider threat to the public. 'Detectives are conducting a thorough and fast-paced investigation, and locals can expect to see an uptick in police presence in the area. 'Anyone with any information – particularly dashcam or doorbell footage from the time of the incident – is urged to speak to us as a matter of urgency.'

Man charged with killing an 'American Idol' exec and husband will undergo mental evaluation
A man charged with fatally shooting an 'American Idol' music supervisor and her husband in their Los Angeles home will undergo mental evaluation to determine whether he's fit to stand trial, a judge ruled Wednesday. Raymond Boodarian, 22, was set to be arraigned in a courthouse in Los Angeles but did not enter a plea. A judge suspended the criminal proceedings against him while a psychiatrist examines him to determine his competency. He's charged with two counts of murder in the killing of longtime 'American Idol' producer Robin Kaye and her husband Thomas Deluca, both 70, who were shot when they came home unexpectedly during a burglary on July 10. A judge at a court that specializes in mental health will consider the evaluation and decide whether Boodarian will proceed toward trial or be placed in a state hospital. Boodarian stood behind a window in a custody area of the courtroom, and appeared to try to remain out of sight. His attorney declined comment, and the district attorney's office had no immediate comment. Boodarian will undergo the same evaluation in the same small courthouse on Hollywood Boulevard where a man charged with stalking Jennifer Aniston and driving into the front gate of her home was recently found to be not competent to go to trial. Police said they responded to a 911 call about a burglary at the home of Kaye and Deluca in the Encino neighborhood of Los Angeles. Police said they found no sign of forced entry or other trouble and left. Four days later the couple's bodies were found, shot to death, when officers carried out a welfare check at the home. Boodarian was arrested the following day. District Attorney Nathan Hochman later said in a community meeting that investigators believe the couple arrived home unexpectedly while Boodarian was burglarizing it. He shot them with their own gun and later called 911 himself, Hochman said. Kaye had been with 'American Idol' for more than 15 years and was working on the upcoming season of the hit singing competition TV series at the time of her death. She had also worked in the music departments of several other productions, including 'The Singing Bee,' 'Hollywood Game Night,' 'Lip Sync Battle,' and several Miss USA and Miss Universe pageants.

Husband of mum killed by falling tree branch pays emotional tribute to ‘love of my life'
THE husband of a woman killed by a falling tree branch has paid tribute to the "love of my life". Wasim Kauser described his wife as the "most beautiful woman in the world" and his "one and only". 4 4 4 Madia Kauser, 32, tragically died after reportedly pushed her five-year-old daughter out of the way of the falling branch on August 11. The couple and their two children had been out on a walk in Witton Country Park, Blackburn, Lancashire, when the beech tree branch fell. Her husband, Wasim, 32, has since delivered a touching tribute. Mr Kauser said in a tribute issued by police: "My wife, a mother-of-two, a daughter, sister and a friend we lost to a tragic event that came on the way home from a family day out in the park. "She was the most beautiful woman in the world, she did everything for our two children, she did everything she could for anyone and would bring smiles whenever she entered the room. "She was my comfort, my partner in life and the love of my life. "We have so many great memories, went through pain together and started a family together. "Honestly, I feel completely lost without her and I do not know how to put into words how much I miss her face, her character and her presence. My one and only." Their daughter was reportedly in a push chair which Madia managed to shove out of the way, saving the child's life. Wasim was playing football with the pair's nine-year-old son nearby. He previously told The Sun about how he desperately tried to save his wife as she took her last few breaths. Wasim said: "I was playing football with my son and kicked the ball in the wrong direction and we were going after it. "I heard a crack and the tree just came down. There was no wind, nothing. "She was hit by a branch but it had the full weight of the tree behind it and that is why the council had to cut it all down. "I rushed to her. I tried to save her, she was still breathing." Paramedics and doctors from the local hospital rushed to the scene but nothing could be done to save her. Wasim added: "I cannot praise the paramedics enough. They were there in six minutes and the doctors came from the local hospital but nothing could be done. "I have spoken to someone at the coroners office and they tell me she had chest fractures and her lungs had collapsed. "The tree she was hit by was standing straight not even leaning and then it just came down. "She has left us. Now there is just me and my children." Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council has since removed the remainder of the tree, as well as trimming back nearby tree branches. A Lancashire Police spokesman said Madia's death was not being treated as suspicious and a file would be prepared for the coroner. Police are carrying out a joint investigation with the Health and Safety Executive, and have appealed for witnesses. 4
