Armed officers seize knife after a number of people hurt in ‘major incident’, say Merseyside police
At least eight people, feared to include several children, have been stabbed in Southport, where a man with a knife was arrested.
Merseyside police said they were responding to a “major incident” at a property in the seaside town in north-west England, where there were “a number of reported casualties”.
North West ambulance service (NWAS) said it had treated eight patients with stab injuries who had been taken to Alder Hey children’s hospital, Aintree university hospital and Southport and Formby hospital.
Emergency services were called to reports of a stabbing on Hart Street in Southport at about 11.50am on Monday, where armed police detained a male and seized a knife.
