A man was detained in Manchester, England, on New Year's Eve after three people were stabbed at the Manchester Victoria railway station, British Transport Police said. A male British Transport Police officer, another man and a woman were taken to the hospital with knife injuries, Greater Manchester Police said. "Tonight's events will have understandably worried people but I need to stress that the incident is not ongoing, a man is in custody and there is currently no intelligence to suggest there is any greater threat at this time," GMP Assistant Chief Constable Rob Potts said. "While we don't yet know the full circumstances and are keeping an open mind, officers from Counter Terrorism Policing North West are leading on the investigation." BBC producer Sam Clack happened to be at the scene. He heard the man "shout 'Allah' distinctly,"

No more threats... until the next one and the one after that and the one after that and ...
big city living?
“He heard the man “shout ‘Allah’ distinctly,” but he didn’t hear the rest of the sentence, he said on air with the BBC.”
Ah, then it could have been ANYTHING.
Not to worry, and go on with the party.
Orwell couldn't have written in better.
I remember our domestic enemies around 2002 mocking the United States’ color-coded terror alert system.
I'll bet he said; "Allah sucks". I'm sure that was it.
“there is currently no intelligence to suggest there is any greater threat at this time”
Well, except for the pesky fact that you’ve let in way too many young male Muslims. That is exactly the greater threat.
Ergo.....Brit rail is dangerous.
“and there is currently no intelligence to suggest there is any greater threat at this time,”
Yeah, riiiiiiiight.
Ever check the local mosques there, UK?
They are not that dumb.
Uh, perhaps they are, given who they elect.
But given that we’ve got Pelosi, Waters, Occasional Cortex, Biden and Bimboy whatever his current name is, we’re not far behind.
bttt
Our media is endlessly repeating “government shutdown” and so has no time for insane fanatics murdering human beings.
Sam Clack, a BBC producer, was waiting for a tram when the attack took place, said: “I just heard this most blood-curdling scream and looked down the platform. What it looked like was a guy in his 60s with a woman of similar age and another guy all dressed in black.
“It looked like they were having a fight, but she was screaming in this blood-curdling way. I saw police in hi-vis come towards him. He came towards me. I looked down and saw he had a kitchen knife with a black handle with a good 12-inch blade. It was just fear, pure fear.”
Clack claimed he heard the man shouting “Allah” during the attack. “He shouted it before, he shouted it during it – Allah. The guy, his exact words were, he said: ‘As long as you keep bombing other countries, this sort of shit is going to keep happening.’”
The Telegraph omitted to use the “Allah” bit in their story -
“I stab you all the time” obviously.
Not!
