Here is what we know so far:
A man targeted six people with a knife in Russell Square, central London, at around 10.30pm on Wednesday night.
A woman, believed to have been in her 60s, was fatally stabbed and pronounced dead at the scene.
A 19-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder.
Two women and three men suffered "various injuries" in the attack, with two remaining in hospital and the other three discharged.

Counter-terrorism officers are supporting the investigation into the incident, while Scotland Yard said early indications suggest mental health "was a factor". In an earlier statement police had said that terrorism was "one line of inquiry being explored".
The attack raises fears of IS targeting people with mental health problems to inspire them to carry out such incidents.

The official threat level from international terrorism currently stands at severe - indicating that an attack is highly likely.
Eyewitness Zuhair Awartani saw the attacker arrested and told the BBC: "He was like African... a dark-skinned man... late 20s probably."

Interesting that ISIS is targeting men with mental health issues to carry terrorist attacks.
Good thing they banned guns. /s
Always. Historically they always go after criminals and the mentally unstable. They are more likely to want to use violence.
Typical British name.....
But we don’t have a problem. Isis is contained.
Calling him mentally unstable may only be a way of deflecting attention from the possibility that he is just another terrorist. How could they distinguish mental instability from fanaticism at this point?
The World knows they will do NOTHING,
... except allow the sale and rape of British white girls
to continue in Gatwick and every Islamic city in
what was once England.
There is some chatter about there being two men acting suspiciously before the stabbings and one got away on a motorbike.
“But we don’t have a problem. Isis is contained.”
Obama speaks in codes that his Marxist handlers and fellow travellers understand for their real, more sinister meaning of what his real intentions are, such as his campaign statement, “I’m going to fundamentally change America,” perhaps the letters “JV” in “JV Team,” the epithet with which he pretended to dismiss ISIS, stand not for “Junior Varsity,” but for “Jugular Vein”
muzzies are sick bastards .... OF COURSE “mental health” would be part of the thought process.
“Interesting that ISIS is targeting men with mental health issues to carry terrorist attacks.”
Oh, no! They are targeting liberals.... :/
Almost by definition anyone who knifes a group of strangers is mentally unstable. It’s just a way to delect away from the Muslim issue.
If all terrorist attacks are mental illness, is the next step that their religion is insane?
Bingo. Blaming mental illness is just a way of excusing the role of Islam.
....and thats an important issue.
The mooselimb world view is that every other culture is crazy and only islam is on the true and rightious path. Toss in the fact their moon god requires true followers to step up and liquidate, or enslave selected, non mooselimbs and you have a recipe for endless horrible death.
The violence has always simmered, we are in an up cycle
The Daily Mail is reporting the killer is a Norwegian national of Somali origin. Those stinkin’ Norwegians!
“The attack raises fears of IS targeting people with mental health problems to inspire them to carry out such incidents.”
“Mental health problems” meaning adherence to mohammedanism?
We now also know the woman was an American tourist.
