Summary
Dawood Safi’s violent rampage in Uxbridge has taken another chilling turn — the jury deadlocked on whether he attempted to murder a 14-year-old during his knife spree, prompting the CPS to drop retrial charges. Already convicted of killing a dog walker and assaulting his landlord, Safi, an Uber driver suffering from severe mental illness triggered by childhood trauma and delusions, faces sentencing in October. Neighbors’ heroic intervention during the attack was praised by the judge, and Safi will remain at Broadmoor until sentencing, where he may face prison or indefinite psychiatric care.
