The Metropolitan Police have confirmed that Somali-born British national, Essa Suleiman, has been charged with attempted murder after two Jewish men were stabbed in Golders Green, north London.

The 45-year-old suspect has been accused of two counts of attempted murder and one count of possession of a bladed article in a public place following Wednesday's incident.

Mr Suleiman has also been charged with a separate count of attempted murder after an incident was reported in Great Dover Street, Southwark just hours before the double stabbing took place.
