Armed Maniac Tries to Storm Edinburgh Nursery with Bloodied Knives
A lunatic wielding two massive, blood-soaked knives tried to break into Sighthill Primary School and Early Years Centre in Edinburgh this morning at about 8:25am. Witnesses say the blades were taped to his hands as he prowled the school grounds in the Calder area.
Local resident Abigail Clegg told the Press Association: “He tried to get into the school, the nursery,” but staff and locals quickly chased him off. The madman then raged into a nearby shop, trashing it in a violent spree.
Knife Rampage Leaves Two Injured, Shops Shut Tight
Eyewitnesses say the thug stalked the playground before unleashing chaos inside the Calder Park shop, leaving a trail of destruction. A shaken woman, who wished to remain anonymous, said: “The shops are all closed down now.”
One courageous local confronted the attacker with a metal bar after spotting him flashing the bloodied weapons.
Police Confirm Incident Not Terror-Related, Investigation Continues
Chief Inspector Scott Kennedy of Police Scotland declared the scene safe and confirmed no terror links. The City of Edinburgh Council shut down all nearby council buildings, schools, and early years centres as a precaution but plans to reopen them soon.
Officers are still investigating and urge anyone with information to contact police at the scene or call 101.
