We've just had a statement from the Metropolitan Police.

"At 11:16hrs on Wednesday 24 April, officers responded following reports of people stabbed in Highfield Avenue.

"Local officers and armed officers attended, alongside the London Ambulance Service.

"The suspect also attempted to stab police officers, and was Tasered before being arrested. No officers were injured.

"Two men – one in his 70s and one in his 30s – were treated at the scene for stab wounds. They have been taken to hospital and both are in a stable condition.

"A 45-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. He was taken into custody, where he remains. We are working to establish his nationality and background.

"Specialist officers from Counter Terrorism Policing are leading the investigation and working with the Metropolitan Police to establish the full circumstances and any links to terrorism."

We're now seeing CCTV footage, verified by the BBC, that appears to show the moment of the attack.

In the video, a person is standing on a street near a bus stop. Another person approaches him and then seems to attack, forcing him into the bus shelter.

The CCTV footage is timestamped 29 April at 11:20.

"Attacks on our Jewish community are attacks on Britain," he says.

Here are some of the first images from Golders Green, taken from social media.

Two people have been stabbed in Golders Green in north London after a man with a knife was seen running down the high street, attempting to stab Jewish people in the area.

Shomrim, the Jewish community security organisation, said they responded immediately and detained a suspect.

They said police then arrived and Tasered a man who has been arrested.

The victims are being treated by Hatzola, whose ambulances were set on on fire across the road from today's incident last month.
