UK Mass Train Stabbing Suspect Linked to Multiple Knife Attacks in Peterborough

News summary

Anthony Williams, 32, is the suspect in a series of knife attacks in Peterborough, including the stabbing of a 14-year-old boy and an incident at a barbershop, as well as a mass stabbing on a London-bound train. CCTV footage shows Williams brandishing a large knife and bursting into the barbershop, causing customers and staff to flee in panic, shortly after the teenager was stabbed. The attacks in Peterborough, believed to be linked, occurred within hours of each other, with police responding to reports but initially unable to locate Williams. Less than 24 hours later, Williams allegedly went on a violent rampage on a train, injuring 11 people and shouting "Kill me, kill me" as police subdued him. He has been charged with multiple counts of attempted murder, actual bodily harm, and possession of a bladed article. Authorities continue to investigate the incidents as part of a wider inquiry into the stabbing spree that has shocked local communities.
