In a shocking incident on Saturday evening, nine people sustained life-threatening injuries in a mass stabbing aboard a high-speed train in eastern England.
The attack occurred on a London North Eastern Railway (LNER) service traveling from Doncaster to London King’s Cross, shortly after it departed Peterborough station. British Transport Police confirmed that armed officers arrested two individuals at Huntingdon station.
Counter-terrorism policing units are now supporting the investigation to establish the full circumstances and motivation behind the attack. Witnesses described a chaotic scene, with one passenger reporting “blood everywhere” and others hiding in train toilets to escape the violence.
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer described the event as “deeply concerning.” No fatalities have been reported, but ten people were transported to hospitals for treatment.
