- On Saturday, a mass stabbing occurred on a London North Eastern Railway train from Doncaster to London, forcing an unscheduled stop at Huntingdon, and Anthony Williams, 32, was remanded at Peterborough Magistrates' Court on Monday.
- Cambridgeshire Police said a 14-year-old was stabbed at 7.10pm on Saturday and a man with a knife was seen at a barber's in Fletton, Peterborough about 15 minutes later, with a second barber report at 9.25am the following morning.
- There were 13 casualties in total, with eight patients still in hospital at Addenbrooke's, Cambridge University Hospitals, and LNER staff member Samir Zitouni is critically unwell but stable after confronting the attacker.
