Police arrest suspect after double stabbing in London Jewish area

British police arrested ​a man after two people were stabbed ‌in Golders Green, an area of north London with ​a large Jewish ​population, a Jewish community security organisation ⁠said on Wednesday.

The organisation, ​Shomrim, said on X that ​a man was seen running with a knife and attempting ​to stab Jewish members ​of the public, before its officers ‌detained ⁠him. Police then attended and deployed a taser, the group added.

London's Metropolitan ​Police did ​not ⁠immediately respond to a request for comment.

Over ​the last month, ​counter-terrorism ⁠officers have arrested more than two dozen people as ⁠part ​of investigations into ​attacks on Jewish-linked premises.
