Yesterday morning, in Southport, UK, the town where I live, a man walked into a dance class and carried out a frenzied knife attack against the young children and adults who were there.
Two girls aged six and seven died yesterday, another girl, aged nine, died this morning, five other children are still in a critical condition at hospital, as well as two adults.
The whole town is in shock. It's very hard to comprehend why such things happen, why somebody would carry out such an atrocious act against innocent children. Lots of questions that need answers.
The man (17) was captured and arrested and taken to a police station.
Please spare a thought for all the poor victims and those affected by this horrendous attack
Thank you.
