A woman has died after a knifeman slashed her throat and repeatedly stabbed her in broad daylight at a hotspot popular with British tourists.
The killing unfolded at around 11am yesterday in the Esplugues de Llobregat area of Barcelona, Spain.
The alleged attacker was reportedly seen by onlookers showing ‘signs of nervousness’ and brandishing a large knife openly in Joan Miró street.
He later approached the woman, stabbing her multiple times and cutting her throat before he fled the scene.
Blood could be seen along the street as emergency services rushed to the scene to try and save the woman.
