British police charge 17-year-old with murder over stabbing attack
ai generated text
A 17-year-old boy has been charged with murder, attempted murder, and possession of an offensive weapon in connection with a stabbing attack at a dance class in Southport. Three girls, Alice Dasilva Aguiar (9), Bebe King (6), and Elsie Dot Stancombe (7), were fatally stabbed, and five other children remain in critical condition.
This misinformation doesn't just exist on people's internet browsers and on people's phones. It has real world impact.
Violent disorder, clearly whipped up online, that is also a crime and it is happening on your premises and the law must be upheld everywhere.
As far as the far-right is concerned, this is coordinated, this is deliberate.
Whilst these charges are a significant milestone within this investigation, this remains very much a live investigation and we continue to work with our partners from Lancashire Police and Counter Terrorism Policing North West (CTPNW).
The horror of yesterday's attack in Southport is washing over me continuously and I'm just completely in shock.
What happened in Southport was just the spark that then ignited what has been months and months of this diffusion of anti-Muslim, anti-immigrant disinformation.
