Two teenagers have been arrested for allegedly plotting to replicate the horrific crimes of Southport killer Axel Rudakubana. Rudakubana is currently serving a life sentence for the murder of three young girls—Bebe King, six, Elsie Stancombe, seven, and Alice Aguiar, nine—during a Taylor Swift-themed dance class last year. A 16-year-old boy from Merseyside and a 17-year-old boy from South Wales are under investigation for planning similar attacks. The younger suspect is accused of intending to carry out a "copycat" attack at a Taylor Swift event. Reports suggest he planned to wear a green hoodie, reminiscent of the one worn by Rudakubana. It is alleged that the 16-year-old gathered knives and travelled to Southport to research local events. Furthermore, he reportedly downloaded the same al-Qaeda manual used by Rudakubana to create the deadly poison ricin. The teenager also considered attacking his former school after dropping out and has researched high school shootings in the United States. He was arrested in August and charged with possessing documents useful for terrorism and making threats to kill. He is expected to enter pleas next month. Meanwhile, the 17-year-old from Cwmbran was arrested in June after allegedly discussing plans to copy Rudakubana and researching "large knives" online. Authorities reportedly found a note on his phone labelled "places to attack," which included directions and images of dance schools near his residence. GPS data indicated that he had been near his former school just days before his arrest. The older teenager is also accused of investigating potential attacks on his own school and had allegedly informed others on social media about plans to target the Oasis concert in Cardiff on July 4. Since his arrest, he has pleaded guilty to possessing a document associated with terrorism. This situation continues to develop as authorities investigate the full extent of the teenagers' plans.
