14-Year-Old Nigeria killed in London sword attack

The teenage boy who died in the Hainault sword attack in north-east London, United Kingdom, has been identified as 14-year-old Nigerian, Daniel Anjorin.

It was gathered that Anjorin died from stab wounds shortly after he was taken to hospital on Tuesday, April 30. He was attacked on his way to school.

Four other people, including two police officers, were injured in the attack. Metropolitan Police chief Sir Mark Rowley said one of the officers nearly lost her hand while apprehending the suspect.
