Three injured in apparent stabbing at UK school

A 17-year-old boy has been arrested this morning for attempted murder after three people were injured in an apparent stabbing at a school in northern England, police said, days after a similar incident in Wales.

The boy was detained following reports of three people being injured at Birley Community College in Sheffield, South Yorkshire Police said.

Officers responded to reports of an incident “involving a sharp object” at around 8.50am.

Two adults were checked at the scene after suffering minor injuries, the force said in a statement. A child was also checked over after being assaulted, it added.
