Maida Vale murder victim Yasmin was also pinned under car "hero" used to kill her attacker
Published at : January 31, 2022
This story is developing constantly and a reminder to wait for the investigation to be completed before assuming or speculating. Detectives from the Met’s Specialist Crime Command investigating the death of a man and woman in Maida Vale have released their names.
The deceased woman has been named as Yasmin Chkaifi, who was aged 43 and from Maida Vale.
The man has been named as Leon McCaskre, who was aged 41 and also from Maida Vale.
Police were called at 09:01hrs on Monday, 24 January to reports of a stabbing on Chippenham Road, W9.
Officers, the London Ambulance Service and London Fire Brigade attended the scene.
Yasmin Chkaifi was found at the scene with stab injuries.
Also at the location was Leon McCaskre, who had been struck by a car.
Both were pronounced dead at the scene.
Next of kin have been informed and Family Liaison Officers are helping to keep them updated and supported.
Post-mortem examinations will take place on Tuesday, 25 and Thursday, 27 January.
Enquiries are under way to establish the full circumstances, but we can confirm the two deceased were known to each other and had previously been in a relationship.
A 26-year-old man, the driver of the car, remained at the scene and was arrested on suspicion of murder.
He was fully cooperative with the investigation and has been bailed to return to a police station on a date in late February while the evidence is evaluated.
Detective Chief Inspector Neil Rawlinson, of the Met’s Specialist Crime Command, said: “We are gaining a clearer idea of what happened at the scene thanks to information supplied by the public and by reviewing CCTV. Firstly, it is apparent that members of the public bravely tried to intervene to stop the attack and their actions were very courageous.
