Reuters. Aerial video footage on Tuesday (July 30) showed the scene of a knife attack in north west England that left two children dead, and six others critically injured.
A 17-year-old male is in police custody on suspicion of murder and attempted murder after the incident at the "Taylor Swift yoga and dance workshop" in Southport, north of Liverpool for children aged from six to 11 on Monday morning.
Two children were killed and nine others were injured, six critically, while two adults were also critically wounded, with police saying they believed had been trying to protect the young victims. Witnesses described what they saw as being like a scene from a horror film.
Merseyside Police said the motive was unclear but said they were not looking for anyone else in connection with the stabbings.
The incident shocked Southport, a quiet seaside town, and Home Secretary (interior minister) Yvette Cooper was one of many who paid somber visits to the scene on Tuesday to lay flowers.
