Panic among the students’ families.. A teenager stabs a teacher in a British school

The parents of the students rushed to a school in the small village of Tewkesbury in Gloucester, western England, after news circulated that a stabbing had occurred inside it.

It later became clear that a student had stabbed a teacher in a school, according to what the British police announced.

Local police said, “A teacher was taken to hospital and suspected of being shot with a knife after an accident at the school.” “A teenager has been arrested in connection with what happened,” she added.

The UK has seen a rise in the number of knife attacks in recent years.

These numbers represent an increase of 9% compared to the previous year and 34% compared to the period between 2010 and 2011.
