Antisemitic Attack in London: Two Stabbed, Suspect Arrested

0:00On April 29, two people got stabbed Wednesday morning in London's Golders Green, a neighborhood with a big Jewish community in what police are. Calling an anti-Semitic attack, a 45-year-old man got arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after running around with a knife targeting Jewish folks. Shamrim security folks spotted the suspect first and held him until police showed up using a stun gun to take him down. The victims, a man in his 30s and another in his 70s, ended up in the hospital, but they're both stable now. He even tried swinging at the cops, but no officers got hurt. Leaders like Prime Minister Kierstarmer and Mayor Sidi Khan slammed the violence, saying a tax on Jews hit all of Britain and have no place here. This comes right after a wave of arson hits on synagogues and Jewish spots nearby, with no injuries with several arrests from teens to folks in their 40s. Their terror teams are digging into those fires too, checking if Iranian proxies were involved, all clustered within a few miles.
