Police update after teachers and pupil injured in school stabbing

The two teachers and a pupil who were hurt in a stabbing at a school in South Wales have been discharged from hospital, police have said.

Carmarthenshire Superintendent Ross Evans said: "As can be expected with an incident as serious as this, there will continue to be a police presence at the school throughout the day today. Officers at the scene will be looking for evidence to assist the investigation, while other specialist teams will analyse any information submitted through our dedicated web page.

Speaking to the PA news agency, Cefin Campbell, the Senedd member for Mid and West Wales, said: "He's embarrassed by all the attention that he's had, he certainly doesn't consider himself a hero in any way. He just told me he just did what most people would have done he acted instinctively, he saw the danger and took action.

"He's taken that role very seriously throughout his life and he will go back to make sure that the pupils are in a good place." "But I think it's the sense of shock because he's been there for 40 years as teacher, he's never ever seen anything like this. I think that hits home to people that it should happen in a place like this."

Footage of the incident has been circulating online, with a number of newspapers reporting the contents of one video in which a panicked pupil can be heard shouting about someone getting stabbed.
