The incident is not being treated as terror-related or a &#8220;targeted attack.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Police said the 14-year-old died in the hospital from his injuries. Two police officers were in hospital being treated for stab wounds. Two other people were also injured.<\/p>\n<p>Chief Supt. Stuart Bell described the incident as &#8220;truly horrific.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I cannot even begin to imagine how those affected must be feeling,&#8221; he said outside the homes in east London where the crime happened.<\/p>\n<p>The Metropolitan Police said they were called early Tuesday to reports of a vehicle being driven into a house in a residential street and people being stabbed.<\/p>\n<p>Video on British media showed a man in a yellow hoodie holding a long sword or knife walking near houses in the area.<\/p>\n<p>Witnesses say they heard police shouting to the suspect urging him to put down the weapon as they chased after him.<\/p>\n<p>Deputy Assistant Commissioner Ade Adelekan said police do not believe there is a threat to the wider community.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are not looking for more suspects,&#8221; he said. &#8220;This incident does not appear to be terror-related.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said the incident was &#8220;shocking,&#8221; adding: &#8220;Such violence has no place on our streets.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>King Charles III said his thoughts and prayers were with the family of the young victim, and he saluted the courage of emergency workers, Buckingham Palace said.<\/p>\n<p>Transport for London said Hainault station was closed due to a police investigation in the area.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a
