Two stabbed in Golders Green, north-west London, says Jewish group | UK news

Jewish neighborhood watch group Shomrim said a man was arrested after two people were stabbed in Golders Green, north-west London.

Shomrim said on social media that the man was seen running along Golders Green Road with a knife and “attempting to stab Jewish members of the public”.

The group said he was detained by members of the group before police officers used a stun gun on him and arrested him.

Shomrim said the two stabbed people were treated by Hatzola, the Jewish volunteer ambulance service.

The incident follows a series of arson attacks targeting Jewish settlements in north London.

In a post on social media, the Jewish charity Community Security Trust said: “A stabbing took place in Golders Green today. The suspect has been arrested. Thank you to @shomrimlondon, @Hatzola and @metpoliceuk for their rapid response. We are working closely with the police and urge anyone with information to contact the police, Shomrim and CST immediately.”
