Police have named the 14-year-old boy killed in a sword attack in East London yesterday as he walked to school as Daniel Anjorin. (Subscribe: https://bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)

His school described him as a “true scholar”, with a “positive nature” and “gentle character”. Two of the police officers involved in the incident are now recovering after hospital treatment, one from what was described as a ‘horrific injury’ to her arm.

The Prime Minister paid tribute to all those affected, saying “such violence has no place on our streets”.

  1. If muslim, then he must be a terrorist, but if non-muslim, then he must be a mental health patient.

    Conclusion: A muslim cannot have mental health problems, and a non-muslim can never be terrorist- so no cobra meeting required.;

  2. 💁 Why is there always so much deflection from the skin colour of a child eliminator whenever the perpetrator is White?

    One thing I keep seeing bigots do is try to shift the blame for this attack to the man's supposed nationality. They are even going so far as to say he is not white because he is supposedly Brazilian or of Brazilian heritage—surely, their level of ignorance cannot be so profound that they fail to acknowledge and understand the difference between nationality and skin colour.

    If the attacker were Black and born in Britain, do you think the same bigots would say that does not count as being Black?

    My sympathies go out to the families of the victims, regardless of their protected characteristics.
    My condolences go out to Daniel's family and friends.

  3. NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION. So here we have a so called "random" attack, but it is growing more suspected as there has been "random" attacks in the UK USA and Australia, all seemingly out of the blue, even after the chinese govement issued pilots helmets with self destruction buttons and the release of a update of there "Neuro strike" weapons in full development. So as seen as there has been a connetion between chinese inteligence and criminal activity, there has to be a clear possibility that "room 10" (chinese inteligence economic warfair unit) may be passing neuro weapons to the criminal elements in certain nations

  4. Marcus Aurelio Arduini Monzo, of Newham, appeared at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Thursday, having also been charged with two counts of attempted murder, two counts of grievous bodily harm, aggravated burglary and possession of a bladed article.

  5. Where are the conservaties to blame this ? Farage where are you ? it's because he's black you have nothing to say ? Coward conservatives get out of here.

  6. When will the right wing, tory hate preachers and a social media that whips up hatred against black and brown, muslim people be held accountable for their division and lies. A 14 year old black school boy was brutally murdered as he was going to school.

  7. I think we are over reacting a little. It's not the England of days gone and as sad as it is its just part of our society. Weve becone 3rd world visualy and culturally.

  8. The sketch doesnt look anytjing like the one arrested earlier ..all over the social media..who are these people ??

  9. Poor little boy 🙁 Rest In Peace! So sad. The police can't have weapons but all these evil creatures can running with swords, machetes and knives. So scary. Condolences to the Family.

  10. With the benefit of hindsight, I sincerely hope that lessons will be learned this time and questions will be raised about mental health and care in the community procedures

  11. Possession with intent to supply is a very serious offence the Family and close relatives need to address this issue immediately and without doubt the victim deserves full Public sympathy

  12. Imagine the same thing happened in Streatham not to long ago and the guy was shot straight away dead without causing serious harm they said he was a terrorist but don’t say the same for this guy it’s confusing
