Two British Men Arrested After Mass Stabbing on Doncaster-London Train Leaves Nine Critically Injured

A stabbing attack occurred on a high-speed train traveling from Doncaster to London King's Cross, resulting in ten people being hospitalized, with two in life-threatening condition. Two British men, aged 32 and 35, one a black British national and the other of Caribbean descent, were arrested shortly after the train stopped at Huntingdon station. British Transport Police have declared a major incident but stated there is no evidence to suggest the attack was terror-related. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer described the event as "deeply concerning" and praised emergency services for their response. Disruption to train services on routes including London Kings Cross to Lincoln, Doncaster, Leeds, Bradford, and Harrogate is expected to continue, with passengers advised to defer travel where possible. LNER has allowed ticket holders to use their tickets on alternative services without extra cost while they work to restore normal operations.
