A concerned mother shared how her daughter witnessed blood on a classroom window following an alleged double stabbing incident in London. The authorities responded to Kingsbury High School in Brent after receiving reports of a 13-year-old boy being stabbed, with a subsequent discovery of a 12-year-old boy also injured.
A 13-year-old boy was taken into custody on suspicion of attempted murder, while counter terrorism officers initiated an inquiry into the school stabbing involving the two boys. A parent, whose child attends the school, described the distressing scene, recounting how her daughter was near the classroom where the attack occurred. The incident left many students in shock.
According to the mom, her daughter heard shouting and alarms, causing panic and chaos among the students. Upon being allowed to leave the classroom, the daughter saw blood on the window, which was a harrowing experience for her and her friends. The grandfather of two pupils at the school mentioned that they believe the suspect was a former student, leaving his grandchildren traumatized.
Despite the arrest of the alleged perpetrator, fear lingered in the vicinity of the school the next day, with police conducting regular patrols in the area. Parents escorted their children to the school, where officers patrolled the premises and a police cordon was maintained.
Simon Theodorou, another parent, claimed the attacker gained entry by climbing over a wall, resulting in both boys sustaining stab wounds—one to the stomach and the other to the neck. Additionally, a third individual was reportedly pepper-sprayed in the face. The investigation, led by counter terrorism officers, is ongoing as the injured boys receive treatment in the hospital, with their families by their side.
School principal Alex Thomas expressed the traumatic impact of the event on the entire school community and assured collaboration with authorities for updates. The Lower School remained closed, while the Upper School welcomed students in Years 10-13.
It is crucial to keep the affected students and families in thoughts during this challenging period as the investigation progresses.
