A knife-wielding man attacked people at Russell Square, central London, killing one and injuring at least six. Police apprehended the suspect and are investigating the incident as a possible act of terrorism.
Police were called in response to an ongoing attack at Russell Square, Bloomsbury, in the London Borough of Camden at 10:33pm local time, according to the Metropolitan Police. Upon arrival, officers discovered six people with wounds, with one person later dying from her injuries.
“Up to six people were found injured at the location,” police said in a statement. “A female (no further details) was treated at the scene but was pronounced dead a short time later.”
Police have also notified that they arrested the suspect after one of the officers took him down using a Taser.
The London Ambulance Service was dispatched to the site. Additional police units have been deployed to the area to provide reassurance.
“Terrorism is one possibility being explored at this stage,” the official statement added. Police did not mention which other possible motives for the attack are being investigated.
