'This is Wolverhampton, not America!' We visited three Wolverhampton crime scenes as residents make desperate plea to end 'gangland-style' killings
Terrified residents across Wolverhampton have made a desperate plea for help following four shocking killings.
Residents living in Wolverhampton have said "enough is enough" as they make a desperate plea following four "gangland-style" killings in just over a month.
Four people have been fatally attacked in recent weeks: two in Leicester Street on September 19, one in a car park near Phoenix Park on October 21, and one in Lilleshall Crescent on October 25.
Each incident left Wolverhampton residents living in fear, some telling the Express & Star they "don't get a second to breathe" amid the seemingly "constant deaths".
'I hug them like it's the last time'
"When I read that someone else had been killed in Wolverhampton, I couldn't believe it", said Akaash Mohammed, 43, who lives near Phoenix Park, after 26-year-old father-to-be Navpreet Singh was fatally attacked in a nearby car park.
"We don't get a second to breathe. There are constant deaths."
Mr Mohammed said that he is now 'too afraid' to leave the house, saying that when his children leave for work, he "hugs them like it's the last time".
He said: "I hardly leave the house now. I'm only out to get my father's prescription. I won't leave the house unless I absolutely have to. How is that right?
"When my children tell me they are going out, I hug them like it's the last time I will see them. How is it okay to live like that?"
