A teenage girl remains in custody being questioned on suspicion of attempted murder following the stabbing of two teachers and a pupil at a Welsh school.
The teachers were stabbed while trying to help when a pupil was attacked, Jonathan Edwards, Independent MP for Carmarthen East and Dinefwr, told Channel 5 News. Headteacher James Durbridge praised staff and pupils for their “calm and mature response” to the lockdown in a message on the school’s website.Parents who gathered outside the school as news of the incident emerged were seen tearfully hugging their children after they walked through the gates.
Mr Llywelyn said: “My thoughts go out to all those affected, including the pupils, teachers and staff who were involved or witnessed this terrifying ordeal. Our thoughts are also with the families and friends of those injured. The Church of All Saints will be open for anyone who wants to light a candle or say a prayer over the coming days.Politicians across Wales and the UK have described their shock at what happened.
I want to thank the police and emergency services for their ongoing response and my thoughts are with all those affected.Adam Price, Plaid Cymru MS for Carmarthen East and Dinefwr, who attended the school between 1980 and 1987, described the incident as a “bolt from the blue”.
