News summary

In Southport, England, a large crowd of far-right protesters clashed with police outside a mosque following the tragic stabbing of three young girls at a dance event. The victims, aged six to nine, were attacked by a 17-year-old male suspect currently in custody on charges of murder and attempted murder. Speculation regarding the suspect's background fueled tensions, leading to violent demonstrations by supporters of the English Defence League, who hurled bottles and stones at police, resulting in injuries and property damage. A peaceful vigil to honor the victims was overshadowed by the chaos, with Assistant Chief Constable Alex Goss condemning the violence as 'sickening.' The Home Secretary described the incident as an 'unspeakable tragedy.' Authorities are urging the public to refrain from speculation as the investigation continues.
