A man has been charged with attempted murder after allegedly stabbing an 11-year-old girl in London's theater district. The accused, a 32-year-old Romanian citizen, reportedly put the girl in a headlock and stabbed her eight times, causing serious injuries that required plastic surgery on her face, shoulder, wrist, and neck.
The incident took place around 11:30 a.m. on Monday in Leicester Square, a popular tourist area, outside a tea shop. Despite the severity of the attack, authorities have stated that there is no indication that it was terror-related, and they do not believe the suspect had any prior connection to the victim or her mother.
