Update: Two children have died, and nine others are injured, some very seriously. Authorities say they have no motive for the attack by a 17-year-old male. It is not being treated as a terrorist attack. The media has not confirmed he is in the country illegally.
One child was reportedly killed, and at least seven, mostly children are clinging to life, were injured by a knifeman who rampaged through a Taylor Swift-themed children’s workshop in Southport this morning.
Most of the children, little girls, are seriously injured.
Armed police officers swooped on Hart Street in Merseyside at 11.50 am after the stabbing spree at the ‘sold out’ children’s dance, yoga, and bracelet-making workshop, which was just about to finish.
The suspect has been caught. According to early reports, he is an illegal alien.
