The stabbed man, in his 40s, was treated in hospital but has since been discharged. Det Ch Insp Cheryl Hannan said: “We are solely focussed on finding out what happened to these two children and supporting those affected by this deeply traumatic incident. I cannot begin to imagine the pain and suffering felt by the family and friends of these two children at this time.” Specially-trained officers are supporting “those closest to the children whilst we find out more about what happened yesterday afternoon”, she added. Neighbors said they were heartbroken at hearing the news.
Jade Halket said: “It’s scary with it being so close, I have two young kids myself, and I find it devastating. It’s awful.” Another resident told the BBC: “I can’t put it into words, I’m absolutely gutted. “[The children] haven’t even seen life yet. We started crying when we found out, it’s just not fair,” she said.
