THIS is the dramatic moment Nottingham attacker Valdo Calocane was Tasered and arrested after killing three in knife and van rampage.
The triple killer was handcuffed and led away by police following the horror in June last year.

Grace Kumar was killed in the rampage
Barnaby’s body was found just 300 yards from his halls of residence
School caretaker Ian Coates also died in the attack
Calocane first stabbed students Grace O’Malley-Kumar and Barnaby Webber, both aged 19, to death near their university halls.
The 31-year-old then killed 65-year-old Ian Coates before getting in his white van and ramming terrified pedestrians.
An officer can be heard yelling “stay where you are, stay where you are” in dramatic footage.
As he points a Taser at the killer, Calocane, who was today handed an indefinite hospital order, tries to shield his head.
The footage then shows him being led away in handcuffs by officers after his arrest.
Calocane has now been locked up for life after he pleaded guilty to manslaughter by diminished responsibility.
His rampage began just after 4am when he knifed Grace and Barnaby as they walked chatting to their halls of residence.
Brave Grace had thrown herself between Barnaby and the attacker in a desperate bid to save him.
She managed to push Calocane into the road but this led him to turn his attention to her, the court was told.
The killer was then “as uncompromisingly brutal in his assault of Grace as he was in his assault of Barnaby” and she collapsed while Barnaby tried to defend himself from the ground.
Calocane was then captured on CCTV calmly walking away after stabbing the pair to death.
He then called his brother and told him: “This will be the last time I speak to you. Take the family out of the country.”
When asked if he was going to do something stupid, Calocane replied: “It is already done”.
While continuing on his rampage, the killer attempted to gain access to a home through a window but was shoved away by a resident.
Undeterred, Calocane made his way to Magdala Road where he came across caretaker Ian, who he also fatally knifed.
He then jumped into Ian’s van and began ploughing into pedestrians – leaving Sharon Miller, Marcin Gawronski and Wayne Birkett injured.
Calocane previously pleaded guilty to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility.
He also admitted attempted murder, with all his pleas accepted by prosecutors.
Nottingham Crown Court was told Calocane was suffering from “extreme” mental illness at the time.
It also emerged that at the time of the killings he was “unlawfully at large”.
An arrest warrant had been issued in September 2022 when Calocane failed to attend court for assaulting a cop that was still outstanding.
Assistant Chief Constable Rob Griffin, from Nottingham Police, admitted: “We should have done more to arrest him”.
The victims’ families wept as their harrowing final moments were revealed in court for the first time.
They also slammed the “monster” triple killer in powerful victim impact statements as they bravely faced Calocane.
Grace’s dad, Dr Sanjoy Kumar, told the brute he was a “a cold, cowardly and calculating killer”.
He also praised his daughter who “heroically and valiantly fought you. Like a hero she put herself in harm’s way.”
The dad said: “The love of our life has been taken away from us. [The] music from my ears has been taken away. Our landscape has turned from vivid colour to black and white.”
Barnaby’s mum Emma Webber said her son’s life had been “stolen in the most vicious, unprovoked, senseless and evil way imaginable”.
She added: “I have utter rage and pure hatred for you, the murderer that sits before me today.
“I do hope that what remains of your dark soul will feel true remorse for what you have done.”
While Ian’s son James Coates branded Calocane a “selfish monster who decided to go on a killing spree”.
“To have a life taken so horrifically is something you will never come to terms with”, he added.
Calocane came to the UK from Guinea-Bissau with his family in 2007 when he was aged 16.
He grew up in a devout church-going family in Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire and was described as “bright and studious”.
He had been receiving treatment from mental health services since 2020, including being treated with anti-psychotic medication.
It is understood his health spiralled during the Covid lockdown and complained of hearing voices telling him he needed to kill people.
Calocane had been sectioned at least four times before the attack but “actively concealed symptoms of psychosis”.
The killer also refused to take his medication and was admitted to hospital in 2020 after smashing down doors in his block of flats.
On occasion in May 2021, Calocane visited MI5’s London headquarters to ask them to stop “controlling him”.
The prosecutor said: “There is a photograph taken by their systems at Thames House, saying ‘please arrest me’ – effectively ‘stop controlling me’.”
Calocane also assaulted a police officer during a search of his flat, with the court told there were “missed opportunities” to alter the tragic chain of events.
