Shocking news from Kingsbury High School in Brent, London: a 13-year-old boy recently appeared in court accused of attacking two students with a knife. The incident, witnessed by classmates and a teacher, unfolded on February 10th. According to reports, the boy allegedly prepped for the attack by hiding a kitchen knife and carrying insect spray, which he used to temporarily blind one student before launching the knife attack.
Both victims were reportedly targeted in their necks—one in a classroom and the other outside. The accused also faces charges for using a harmful substance and possessing a blade on school grounds. After the incidents, he managed to evade capture for approximately three hours before being apprehended by police.
At his first Crown Court appearance, he was visibly anxious, only speaking to confirm his name. The boy is set for a trial at the Old Bailey later this year, with a plea hearing scheduled for July 3rd. If convicted, he could face serious charges, including attempted murder.
Stay tuned for more updates on this case as it unfolds in the coming months.
