Police hunting the Bournemouth knifeman who killed one woman and left another fighting for her life have arrested a 17-year-old boy.

Police were called to the incident on Durley Chine Beach at the popular Dorset seaside town at 11.42pm last night.

A 34-year-old woman from Poole was pronounced dead at the scene. Her next of kin have been informed and the coroner notified. A 38-year-old woman from Poole was taken to hospital with very serious injuries and her next of kin are aware.

What appears to be a large patch of blood can be seen near a groyne in one photograph.
