A teenage girl has been charged with attempted murder after two teachers and a pupil were stabbed at a school in Wales.
Pupils at Amman Valley School, also known as Ysgol Dyffryn Aman, in Carmarthenshire went into lockdown just after 11.20am on Wednesday after the stabbing at the end of morning break.
Two teachers and a pupil were hurt in the incident but have now been released from hospital.
A 13-year-old girl has now been charged with three counts of attempted murder, Dyfed-Powys Police Superintendent Ross Evans said in a statement outside the school on Thursday evening.
A 15-year-old boy has also been arrested and remains in police custody on suspicion of making threats referencing the stabbing incident at Amman Valley, the force said
“Following [the stabbing incident], yesterday evening, our control room received a number of calls reporting concerns about messages being shared on social media which had references to the incident here at Ysgol Dyffryn Aman,” said Supt Evans.
“Officers swiftly carried out a warrant at the home of the person believed to be responsible for this content and a 15-year-old male has been arrested. He also remains in police custody while we investigate these allegations.”
