He was arrested several days after the incident hiding in an unfurnished flat in Northamptonshire.
Arthur denies five counts of grievous bodily harm (GBH) with intent and nine counts of actual bodily harm (ABH) against 14 people. Andre denies four counts of GBH and two counts of ABH.

‘It was so hard to deal with what happened, but then I realised it was not about me but about my child. I’ll do my best for my baby.’
Admitting it had been a harrowing time for her, Ferne explained that her hormones had added to her emotional state, as she said: ‘There are times I feel emotional.
‘Not in a negative way, like I’m feeling really sad, but my hormones are all over the place. But I never feel lonely as I have my baby.
‘I thoroughly intend to bring up my baby as a single mum like many other women have done in the past. And I will do my best for this baby as a single mum.’

‘They say what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger and it really is true. I feel like I’ve developed a new armour this year.
‘I don’t like the term single mum and I don’t want to be addressed as that because I don’t think you should be labelled. To me, I’m going to be a mum like anyone else, but just in a different situation. It shouldn’t define you.

‘But yes, I have done this whole pregnancy on my own, but at the same time I’m so not alone – I’ve got such a great support network with my mum, sister and friends I’ve not felt alone or been alone once during this pregnancy.’
When Ferne announced her pregnancy, two days after Arthur was arrested, she explained she was going to do all she could to have a ‘healthy and happy child’.
She told MailOnline: ‘Ferne is in no way seeking sympathy for her situation and is determined to do all she can to have a happy and healthy child and face the challenges of being a single parent with all her energy,’ her statement read.
‘Her thoughts are with the victims of the horrific attack on Easter Monday.’
