The stabbings in Southport left two children dead and six other youngsters in a critical condition.
Taylor Swift has said she is “completely in shock” after the “horror” of the Southport knife attack at a dance class themed on the singer.
A teenager continues to be quizzed by police following a “ferocious” knife attack at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class which left two children dead and six other youngsters in a critical condition. Police have said that, although the motive for the attack is unclear, it is not believed to be terror-related.
“Our office is in the same building as the dance studio. He heard screams and went outside, saw the attacker, saw that he had hurt a child and tried to take the knife off him and got stabbed in the leg.” Leanne Lucas, 35, who managed Enlighten with Leanne, a local yoga studio, was seriously injured while attempting to shield the children from harm.
Chief Constable Serena Kennedy said that, after receiving reports of a stabbing at 11.47am, officers were “shocked to find that multiple people, many of whom were children, had been subjected to a ferocious attack and had suffered serious injuries”.
