What was Hero Stephen Cook’s story? The Police have uncovered the casualty of the weekend confrontation in Exeter to be Hero Stephen Cook, generally known as ‘Cookie’. Back in 2017, Stephen pulled off a heroic feat when he rescued an unconscious person from the River Exe. This time around, Stephen – a homeless man – was found with chest wounds from a stabbing on Sidwell Street at approximately 8:10 p.m.. He was immediately brought to hospital but succumbed to his injuries.
What was Hero Stephen Cook’s story?
Although Stephen spent most of his life in prison for crimes including drug and alcohol addiction and rough sleeping, we cannot conclude that he was a deficient person based on these facts.
As a family man who lived with his wife and children and worked as a steel fixer, Stephen was gifted with exceptional abilities, including guitar playing and carving colored stones.
Stephen said he was in the worst situation of his life because of his addiction to drugs and alcohol. Despite being in the worst situation, Stephen is looking forward to leading a better life.
“I don’t want to return to my old ways. One of the reasons I wish to change is because of my two children, 23 and 21, who live in North Devon and are 23 and 21 years old. I do not want to get into trouble again.”
I am proud of my daughter, a third-year university student. She makes me proud, and I hope she feels the same about me.” He continued, confident that his life would improve: “I don’t want to use drug use as justification any longer. To get through hard sleep, I drink every day.”

Christchurch, a 19-year-old man and a Bournemouth resident, was initially detained on suspicion of murder but later detained on suspicion of affray. He was released on bail but still in police custody and ordered to report on Thursday, April 27.
In his statement, Investigation Chief Inspector Stephanie Blundell said: “Enquiries are ongoing, and citizens can expect to see continued police activity in Exeter related to this investigation over the next week.
