The attack took place on a train travelling from Doncaster to London on Saturday night. Ten people were taken to the hospital, of whom nine are thought to have serious injuries. The train stopped at Huntingdon, where armed police boarded the train. Two people have been arrested.
Chief Superintendent Chris Casey of the British Transport Police said, “We’re conducting urgent enquiries to establish what has happened, and it could take some time before we are in a position to confirm anything further. “At this early stage, it would not be appropriate to speculate on the causes of the incident.”
