A 32-year-old man has been charged with multiple counts of attempted murder following a major incident on a train in Cambridgeshire on Saturday evening.

British Transport Police, on its website on Monday, said Williams has also been charged with an additional count of attempted murder and possession of a bladed article in connection with a separate incident at Pontoon Dock DLR station in east London on the same day.

He is due to appear at Peterborough Magistrates’ Court this morning ( November 3).

He added: “Our investigation is also looking at other possible linked offences.

It was reported earlier that the British police said it had launched an investigation into the mass stabbing on a London-bound train on Sunday that left 10 people wounded, including nine critically, with two people arrested

The attack occurred on Saturday evening on the typically busy service between the town of Doncaster, in northern England, and King’s Cross station in the capital.

The incident forced the train to stop at Huntingdon station in Cambridgeshire. Police said 10 people were hospitalised, nine of whom were “believed to have suffered life-threatening injuries”.

Two suspects were arrested at the station, police said, adding that counter-terrorism units were assisting the investigation.
