Two children are dead following a stabbing at a children’s dance class in northwest England, police said Monday.

Nine other children were wounded — six of them critically — in the knife attack at a Taylor Swift-themed dance party in Southport, a seaside town near Liverpool.

Two adults were critically injured, and police said it appeared they had been trying to shield the children from the attack.

Merseyside police called it a “major incident,” but said there was no wider threat to the public.

A 17-year-old boy was arrested, and a knife was seized following the attack. He is being held on suspicion of murder and attempted murder.

    No he is not from Cardiff tell the truth now. Guy arrived on a boat last year and is from Syria. Stop trying to calm it down and tell it like it is.

    Syrian refugee, not an indigenous white native to the UK, like the UK police are trying to portray

    A Syrian boat invader came here a year ago, the Police are trying to pass him of as a Welshman they really do have a recruiting problem.

    Ali Al Shakita, 17 yo syrian asylum seeker, came across on a boat 2 year ago, on the MI6 MI5 terrorist watch list, MI5 is the uk and MI6 is the foreign watch list, he was on both.

    So enriching! 😌 Aren't y'all enjoying the many gifts that diversity brings to anyone who opens their doors to them?
  • No description of the terrorist... yup, tells us everything we need to know about him; he ain't a "LOCAL!"
  • @mcnowski

  • @michelles2299
    The people of Merseyside won't just forget about this
  • Allegedly he's a Somalian immigrant called Ali al Shakati. Apparently he was on MI6's radar?

    Dear God. How will the parents cope with this atrocity. Government definitely responsible.
