Cyclist stabbed to death in row
A female cyclist has been stabbed to death in the Anfield area of Liverpool in a "vicious and brutal" attack.
Police said she was riding a bicycle on Whitfield Road on Friday night when a car pulled up alongside her and an argument broke out with its occupants.
Witnesses reported that she rode off but the car followed and on Woodville Terrace two women got out, pulled her from her bike, and she was stabbed.
Merseyside Police are trying to find out the victim's identity.
She is aged between 16 and 20, about 5ft 6in tall, and had dark brown, shoulder-length hair which she was wearing in a single plait.
Garland tattoo
She was wearing a black Location brand tracksuit and a zipped jacket, a black t-shirt and red, black and silver Nike trainers.
The woman was riding a black and light pink Universal Fusion mountain bike with a black seat.
She had "Atalia" tattooed on her right hip, and the name "Demi Lee" tattooed on her right foot with a rose entwined with the letters.
She also had a tattoo of a garland of flowers circling her navel.
Witness appeal
Det Ch Insp Richie Davies, of Merseyside Police, said: "This was a vicious and brutal attack on a young woman and I would appeal to anybody who has any information which could help us with our inquiries to contact us urgently.
"I am also anxious to trace anyone who may recognise the victim from the description we have released.
"It may be that you have not seen your partner, daughter, sister or friend since yesterday and if you believe she fits the description we have released I would urge you to contact us."
Officers are carrying out house-to-house inquiries and the area around the attack has been cordoned off.
Police believe the women who attacked the victim were passengers in the car, which was being driven by a man.
Det Insp Davies added: "We are following up a number of positive lines of inquiry, but again I would like to reiterate that if anyone out there has any information which could help us with our inquiries they should contact police as soon as possible."
