2 Children Dead in Stabbing at Taylor Swift-Themed Event
A tragedy has unfolded in England.
Two children have died and nine others were injured—including six in critical condition—in a July 29 stabbing attack near a Taylor Swift-themed dance workshop in Southport, a seaside town in the northwest of the country, Merseyside Police chief constable Serena Kennedy confirmed during a press conference.
Law enforcement arrested a 17-year-old male in connection with the attack and currently remains in police custody where he will be questioned about the incident, officials had previously shared in a statement posted to social media. They added, “We can also confirm that the incident is not currently being treated as terror-related and we are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident.”
North West Ambulance Service confirmed via X, formerly Twitter, it has “treated eight patients with stab injuries, who have been taken to Alder Hey Children’s Hospital, Aintree University Hospital and Southport and Formby hospital.”
Alder Hey Children’s Hospital likewise declared a “major incident” in a July 29 news release.
