LA TimesPolice talk to members of the public at the scene of the stabbing attack in Hainault, an east London suburb, on Tuesday. A man wielding a sword attacked members of the public and police officers in an east London suburb Tuesday, killing a 14-year-old boy and injuring four other people, British authorities said. A 36-year-old man was arrested in a residential area near Hainault subway station, police said. Stuart Bell described the incident as “truly horrific.” “I cannot even begin to imagine how those affected must be feeling,” he said outside the homes in east London where the crime occurred. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said the incident was “shocking,” adding: “Such violence has no place on our streets.” King Charles III said his thoughts and prayers were with the family of the young victim, and he saluted the courage of emergency workers, Buckingham Palace said.
