England Stabbing Attack A stabbing attack in northern England killed two children and injured 11 people yesterday, most of them children. The attack—which is not being investigated as an act of terrorism—was believed to be carried out by a 17-year-old male. The stabbing took place at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class for kids aged six to 11 in Southport, a small seaside town near Liverpool. The suspect reportedly entered the studio premises armed with a knife and began targeting the children. Police say two adults were among those critically injured, believed to have been hurt while trying to protect the kids. Police are investigating a motive. See live updates here. The deadliest attack on children took place in 1996, when a 43-year-old gunman killed 16 kindergartners and their teacher at a school in Dunblane, Scotland. That attack led to a 1997 ban on almost all private gun ownership in the UK. #Taylor, #Swift, #Stabbing, #Attack,
