Nottingham triple killer trapped flatmate and held him in headlock
In January 2022, Valdo Calocane assaulted a flatmate and blocked his exit, an incident linked to his deteriorating mental health before fatal 2023 attacks that killed three people.
- On March 5, the Nottingham Inquiry heard mobile footage showing Valdo Calocane in a headlock on 15 January 2022 at Raleigh Park student accommodation.
- Calocane, diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, had refused medication while witnesses described his behaviour deteriorating between December 2021 and January 2022 among flatmates.
- Police records and testimony show attending officers deemed the incident common assault and offered restorative justice, with Christopher saying `They did not arrest him and nothing happened`.
- Residents told the inquiry they felt at risk because they were not told Calocane's history before moving out on 18 January, with no financial help from the university.
- The inquiry heard police took no steps to execute a September 2022 warrant before the June 2023 attacks, and more than 100 witnesses will give evidence over eight weeks.
