A woman has been arrested after three children were reportedly stabbed at a house in West Yorkshire.
Police were called to an address on Walpole Road, Huddersfield, at around 8.02am after "being made aware of a concern for safety" from the ambulance service. Officers attending the scene found two boys, a girl, and a woman all seriously injured.
It is believed that the injuries were caused by a 'bladed weapon' with all four taken to hospital for treatment. Police have also arrested a woman on suspicion of attempted murder as part of an investigation into the injured people.
DCI Sam Freeman of the Homicide and Major Enquiry Team, said: “Enquiries are ongoing today into what has clearly been a serious and distressing incident in Huddersfield and we fully appreciate the concern it will cause in the local community.
“Detectives are conducting enquiries to determine the exact circumstances of what has taken place and an arrest has now been made as part of those investigations."
Chief Inspector Rebecca Calpin of Kirklees Police, said: “Reassurance patrols are taking place in the local area by officers from the Huddersfield Neighbourhood Policing Team and will be continuing throughout the day as Kirklees officers work to support colleagues from our HMET team.”
