Girl stabs three people in her high school, including female teacher among injured

Three people have been injured in a stabbing at Ysgol Dyffryn Aman secondary school in Carmarthenshire, Wales. British media report this. The police have arrested a student.

Dozens of police cars and helicopters were sent to the secondary school in south-west Wales on Wednesday afternoon. Three people were injured, including a female teacher who was taken to hospital by helicopter.

A student, believed to be in the same class as the perpetrator, was given first aid at the scene until emergency services arrived. There is still uncertainty about the third injured person. Presumably it concerns a second teacher who wanted to mediate.

The police have arrested a suspect and suspect that the perpetrator acted alone. The motive is not yet clear. “We would like to ask people not to speculate while a police investigation is ongoing.” The school has gone into lockdown.

Images of the incident are said to be circulating on social media. “We would ask that this be removed to avoid contempt of court and distress to those affected.”
