A 13-year-old boy has died and four people are in hospital after a stabbing attack in northeast London. Police were called to reports a 36-year-old man was wielding a sword and attacking members of the public around 7am. Officers were also caught up in the rampage in Hainault, northeast London, near the Tube station. Police also said the man crashed a vehicle into a house in nearby Thurlow Gardens, before reportedly stabbing a number of people and being arrested. London Ambulance Service said they treated five people at the scene and took them to hospital - including the 13-year-old boy.
Two other members of the public were in hospital with injuries believed to be not life-threatening. Along with them, two officers received "significant injuries" during the incident and will undergo surgery, police said. Eyewitnesses described hearing shrieking and seeing someone receive CPR at the scene. Chris Bates told Sky News he saw police apprehend a suspect wielding a "big samurai sword".
He said that, after confronting the suspect, police screamed at them to drop the sword, before they Tasered him, and "piled on top of him", arresting him. Another local resident said she saw a body on the ground as she hid by her window, while a sword-wielding man shouted "do you believe in god?" outside her home. The witness, who didn't want to be named, said: "He was wielding his sword trying to attack the police but then they sprayed him and he ran away. "He was shouting at the police 'do you believe in God?', also at the ambulance.
