Emmerdale: Belle attacked Tom

This evening in the Dales, Amelia told Amy that she was going to speak to Belle and go to the police about Tom. She’d heard that Tom had killed Piper and had finally woken up to his true ways.

However, after asking Belle to meet her at the Dingle house, Amelia actually secretly worked with Tom to set Belle up.

Tom then arrived at the house instead of Amelia, before locking the door. Tom then beat Belle up but things soon took a turn when Belle grabbed a shotgun and threatened Tom with it.

She then managed to get him to unlock the door before she escaped out of the house and ran away.

Hiding away from Tom, Belle was left frightened when he cornered her once more.

She went to shoot him but hadn’t taken the safety lock off. Mocking Belle’s error, Tom then grabbed the gun and took the lock off it.

With Tom holding the fully loaded gun and staring at himself in the mirror with his back turned to Belle, she then grabbed an axe and stabbed Tom in the back with it. He then dropped to the floor with the axe stuck in his back…
