LONDON -- An 11-year-old girl and a 34-year-old woman were stabbed in Leicester Square in central London on Monday, police said.

A man has been arrested and investigators “don’t believe there are any outstanding suspects,” according to London’s Metropolitan Police Service

There is currently no evidence to suggest the incident is terror-related, police said.

The girl and the woman were taken to a hospital, police said, adding in an update that the 11-year-old will require further treatment, although her injures are not considered life-threatening.

“A man has been arrested”

That’s a hell of a description.......and very telling.

Probably a crime of “love” since the left can’t commit hate crimes.

Yes, that is correct. He’s not “far-right”.

Coulter’s law strikes again.

I assume they mean the suspect identifies as a man?

When I lived there 40 years ago, such an attack would never happen in Soho. London has gone down the drain.

Surely you are not surprised. A racist mayor was elected, what can one expect?

Actually, it’s not terrorism, by definition.

It’s the practice of fundamental religious doctrine.

Eternal salvation is at stake, from its adherents.

I am sure if they bothered to ask to two who were stabbed, they would say they were terrorized

Being randomly attacked and stabbed by a complete stranger isn’t terrorizing enough to be acknowledged as a terrorist attack?

Terrorism is defined as the commission of crimes to advance a political objective. If the criminal just wants you dead, or if he wants you dead for religious reasons, or if he’s a member of a protected class and you aren’t, I guess, it isn’t terrorism.
