"My thoughts remain with Suleyman's family and friends at this unimaginably difficult time. I am aware of concerns in the local community, but I would like to reassure people that this is believed to have been an isolated incident and there is no information at this time to suggest this was a racially-motivated attack. We have increased patrols in the local area and I would ask anyone with concerns to speak to my officers."
"A 21-year-old man has already been charged with attempted murder in connection with this incident. I want to express my thanks to the first responders, who were on the scene within minutes, and the members of the public who did everything they could to save Suleyman's life. Their actions gave his family the opportunity to say goodbye."
