Two young children lost their lives in a terrible attack at a dance class in northern England on Monday. Nine other people, including six children, were badly hurt. The police say a teenager used a knife to harm the children. Grown-ups tried to help the kids and were also hurt.
The police are trying to figure out why this happened but say it is not linked to terrorism. They arrested a teenage boy at the scene. The people who were hurt are in the hospital, and some are very sick.
This awful event has shocked everyone, and people are very sad about what happened.
A local business owner said the scene after the attack was like a horror movie. People were screaming, and he saw many hurt children. The attack happened at a place where kids were having a Taylor Swift-themed dance class. A nearby resident told about a scared mom who said her daughter was stabbed. He helped her to get to safety.
The attack was very bad, and many people were hurt. A children’s hospital near Southport had to deal with many sick kids simultaneously. They asked parents only to bring their kids to the hospital if they were badly hurt.
