Police in Edinburgh, Scotland, are facing backlash after they reportedly failed to intervene when an alleged migrant, wielding massive knives, reportedly stabbed at least two people and tried to break into a daycare on Monday morning.

The man who is originally from Somalia tried to gain entry into a nursery in the Daycare.
Authorities received reports of a “man with a bladed weapon,” but when they arrived, they allegedly refused to get out of their vehicles as the suspect damaged a shop, attacked people, and then tried to get into the nursery.
A local resident said the knifeman “tried to get into the school, the nursery,” the Mirror reports.
“He (then) went into the shop. He ransacked the shop; the shop’s a mess. He chased the people that work in the shop with a knife.”
Another witness stated, “The man was stood outside the back of the shops. I could see his hands covered in blood. And the knives were drenched in it.”
“Parents from the school were running with their kids into cars. We begged the police to come and help.” They reportedly didn’t.
The knifer was barricaded for some time in his welfare apartment.
The Somali man is not a terrorist because he is mentally ill. What a relief! Just a foreigner in camouflage trying to break into a nursery.
As long as the police are safe and he’s not a terrorist, only terrorizing.

I’m afraid all the countries of the UK are on the cusp of being a lost cause.
Their cops are like the social workers that Mandani wants to use in NYC. Their training is to wait until all the killings and carnage stops. Once the “disturbed person” stops to rest, approach cautiously with refreshments and calmly check on his welfare. Let’s talk and see if we can find the reason you’re feeling so upset, today.
england is gone. the “leaders” have given it over to the islams. every “leader” in england should be burned with their houses. this is why you never give up your guns. if englanders still had their guns they could take care of this animal themselves and not have to depend on government cowards.
What the Hell , I thought edged weapons were illegal in the U.K. , oh that right that law only applies to white U.K. residents not foreign mass murdering wannabes
What’s the difference between the cops, officials, and allies of the terrorists? I see none.
I don’t understand why the police said that because it was a firearm incident they could not get out of their car.
The guy had knives not firearms
What am I missing here ?
You’re missing the fact that Scottish law enforcement have no balls up under their kilts.
Their excuse seems to be that the incident required guns and they were not armed.
