Police rule out terrorism in stabbing attack on UK train after 2 men are arrested

British police ruled out terrorism after a mass stabbing on a London-bound train Saturday evening, as two victims remained in life-threatening condition and 11 people in total were treated. Two UK-born men were arrested within minutes after the train made an emergency stop at Huntingdon, where armed officers met bloodied, shaken passengers. Superintendent John Loveless said “Plato” protocols were briefly activated then withdrawn, and no motive has been disclosed. Witnesses described panic, with people running and hiding in toilets. Officials praised staff and passengers’ bravery, and LNER warned of disruption until Monday; police will be highly visible on Sunday.
