Former Rolls Royce head designer Ian Cameron was stabbed to death outside his £3 million mansion in Bavaria, Germany.

The 74-year-old British national was attacked in Herrsching, near Lake Ammersee.

His wife, Verena Kloos, somehow survived the attack by scaling a wall to a neighbour’s house from where she called the police.

The incident happened on FRIDAY but the German Government hasn't released the name of the peaceful attacker yet.
