A 29-year-old man has been charged in connection with the stabbing of a 21-year-old woman in Stirling, which left her with non-life-threatening injuries. Following the incident, which occurred on Saturday evening, Police Scotland clarified that the suspect is white and local, countering false social media claims suggesting he was Muslim and that multiple people were stabbed. The First Minister, John Swinney, urged the public to avoid 'unhelpful speculation' on social media, especially in light of unrest in England following the tragic murders of three young girls. The police reiterated that this incident is being treated as isolated and poses no wider threat to the community. Rumors were amplified by far-right figures, including Tommy Robinson, raising concerns about the potential for inciting racial tensions. Authorities are conducting ongoing inquiries to verify the circumstances surrounding the incident.
