On Monday, a knife attack in Southport in the northwest of England left three young children dead, five others are in critical condition, and two adults were also hurt.
The murdered children have now been named by Merseyside Police as nine-year-old Alice Dasilva Aguiar, six-year-old Bebe King, and seven-year-old Elsie Dot Stancombe.
According to AP, a witness described seeing bloodied children running from a community center where a Taylor Swift-themed dance and yoga event for children aged about 6 to 11 was taking place.
Emergency services responded to the scene, and police reported that they had detained a 17-year-old male suspect and seized the weapon. UK law prevents the release of details on the suspect because he is under 18.
Yoga instructor Leanne Lucas risked her own life to help save children at the risk of her own life. Lucas is in the hospital in critical condition.
Jonathan Hayes was also injured trying to protect the children, and Joel Verite tackled the suspect and helped the victims.

Southport residents gathered for a vigil, and after reports of a man found with a balaclava and a knife by police, the scene turned chaotic.
