“This is a horrific incident in which a young mother has lost her life and her child is critically ill,” Detective Chief Inspector Mick Norman said.
As well as the 30-plus attacks in London so far this year, there were 135 knife assaults reported in 2018.
What many are calling a knife-stabbing epidemic has taken over 100 lives throughout the country this year alone. There have been a number of protests in the capital calling on the authorities to act on violent crimes.
