Tower Hamlets stabbing: Three injured at health centre

**Three people have been stabbed at a health centre in east London.**


Police were called just after 11:00 GMT to St Stephen's Health Centre in Tower Hamlets.


The three were taken to hospital with injuries that are not life-threatening, police said. A man has been detained and taken to hospital for treatment.


A video posted to social media showed a man with long hair, dressed only in underwear, being led in handcuffs to the back of a police van.


A cordon remains in place and inquiries are continuing.


A London Ambulance Service spokesperson said: "We sent an incident response officer, an advanced paramedic, two ambulance crews and two single responders in cars to the scene. We also dispatched a response car from London's Air Ambulance.


"We treated four people at the scene. We took three of the four to a major trauma centre as a priority and one to hospital."


The incident is not being treated as terror-related, the Met Police said.
