14-year-old Nigerian boy Daniel Anjorin killed in London knife attack

A tragic incident in London has claimed the life of a 14-year-old Nigerian boy.

The victim has been identified as Daniel Anjorin, who sadly passed away in hospital following the attack on Tuesday. Alongside Daniel, four others, including two police officers, were injured.

A 36-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder in connection with the incident.

Door camera footage showed the moment the knifeman was Tasered and arrested on the driveway of a semi-detached house. Armed officers arrived on the scene seconds later.

Daniel was a student at Bancroft’s, the same independent day school attended by Grace O’Malley-Kumar, one of the victims in a recent stabbing incident.

In a statement, Holy Family Catholic School, where Daniel’s mother works, expressed deep sadness at the loss, identifying her as Mrs. Anjorin. They requested prayers for Mrs. Anjorin, her husband, and their other children during this difficult time.
