Hunt on for teen after two boys stabbed at school

An urgent search is taking place for a teenager suspected of stabbing two boys who were injured at a school in north-west London, the Met Police has said.

Officers were called to Kingsbury High School at about 12:40 GMT following reports a 13-year-old boy had been stabbed.

Police said they were later made aware that a second victim, a 12-year-old boy, had also been stabbed at the scene.

Both boys were taken to hospital by the London Ambulance Service, with one taken to a major trauma centre as a priority. Police said they were awaiting an update on their condition.

Det Ch Supt Luke Williams said the stabbings would cause "considerable concern" locally.

"We want to reassure local students, parents and residents that we have deployed significant resources to the area and are doing everything we can to locate the suspect," he said.
