London police said it arrested a 13-year-old on suspicion of attempted murder after he allegedly stabbed two other teenagers at a school, and that its counter-terrorism unit was leading the investigation.
The incident occurred at Kingsbury High School in Brent, northwest London. Two boys, aged 12 and 13, were stabbed and taken to hospital, where they remain in serious condition.
The suspect, 13, was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and remains in custody for questioning, said detective chief superintendent at the Metropolitan Police, Luke Williams.
The British government has been scrambling to tackle youth knife crime after teenager Axel Rudakubana attacked a Taylor Swift-themed children’s dance in Southport in 2024, killing three girls and stabbing 10 others.
