UK Train Stabbing Injures 10, 2 Suspects Arrested in Cambridge Investigation

A stabbing attack on a train traveling from Doncaster to London’s King’s Cross station left ten people injured, nine critically, near Huntingdon in eastern England. Two suspects were arrested at Huntingdon station, where the train was stopped following the incident, and armed police subdued one individual with a taser. British Transport Police are leading the investigation with assistance from counter-terrorism units, but no motive has been disclosed, and authorities caution that it will take time to confirm details. The attack prompted a major emergency response including ambulances and air ambulances, and caused disruptions to rail services and road closures in the area. Witnesses described chaotic scenes, with one noting people urging others to run and reporting bloodied passengers. The police activated and later rescinded the “Plato” code, used for possible marauding terror attacks, underscoring the seriousness with which the incident is being treated.
