UK School Horror: Boy, 13, Arrested After Double Stabbing

A 13-year-old boy has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after two pupils were stabbed in a shocking attack at a north-west London secondary school.

Police were called to Kingsbury High School in Brent at around 12:40pm on Tuesday following reports that a 13-year-old boy had been stabbed. Officers later confirmed a second victim, aged 12, had also suffered knife injuries during the same incident.

Both boys were taken to hospital. One was rushed to a major trauma centre as a priority case. Police said both remain in a serious condition.

The suspect fled but was later arrested. A weapon believed to have been used in the attack has been recovered. He remains in custody for questioning.

Counter Terrorism Policing London is leading the investigation, although the Met has not declared the incident a terrorist attack. Detective Chief Superintendent Luke Williams said officers are keeping “an open mind” regarding motive.

Witnesses quoted by the Daily Mail alleged the suspect shouted “Allahu Akbar” — Arabic for “God is greatest” — during the attack. Police have not confirmed that claim.

Armed officers were on scene within 13 minutes of the first 999 call. Authorities say they are not searching for any other suspects.

Students were seen leaving the school visibly distressed, with some kept behind to assist police inquiries. Headteacher Alex Thomas described the stabbings as a “deeply traumatic event” for the school community.

Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood called it a “shocking attack”, while London Mayor Sir Sadiq Khan described the incident as “appalling” and urged anyone with information to come forward.

The investigation remains ongoing.

“Allahu Akbar” actually means "Our God is greater [than yours]"...

It's a sort of war cry against infidels.
