He told the PA news agency: "I came out and I counted over the next half an hour about 31 different emergency vehicles.

"I saw what looked like a Chinese lady, probably in her 20s, crying uncontrollably and she had blood on her front.

"There was one elderly Chinese man who was walking wounded with his head all bandaged up and they put him in the back of an ambulance."

Another younger man was seen being treated by paramedics, he said.

Superintendent Rich Jones, from South Wales Police, said: "This is clearly a very serious incident which has caused significant shock and concern for both the local and wider community.

"We have a dedicated team of detectives working hard to establish the exact circumstances that have led to the tragic death of this young girl.
