🚨HORRIFIC ATTEMPTED BEHEADING ON THE STREETS OF BELFAST 😱
Graphic Warning ⚠️
Just after 10:30pm last night on Kinnaird Avenue, North Belfast, a man was slashed and stabbed in a frenzied attack, with the suspect on top of him on the ground repeatedly hacking at his head and neck in what looked like an attempt to cut his head off. Blood everywhere.
Hero bystanders dragged the attacker off.
The suspect appears to be a foreign national as he is shouting in a foreign language during the assault.
PSNI have one suspect in custody. Victim rushed to hospital with serious head and neck injuries.

Omar Artan didn’t just make the #FIFAWorldCup, he made history as the first Somali referee to get there, and as #Africa’s best. That milestone stands no matter what. So sorry to see this, Omar. You reached the summit of your profession and inspired a generation back home just by getting there, and being kept off the pitch you earned doesn’t change that. This won’t be the end of your story on the world stage. The world stands with you as one family, wishing you resilience now and many more major finals to come. Solidarity. #Somalia

@FIFAWorldCup the most corrupt, selfish country is USA.
Honestly - it's always chaos. It's expensive, it's chaotic, it's dirty politics.
And now football is in this....
Soccer would not exist without immigrants. Immigrants play and coach the game, work in the stadiums, fill the stands, and make celebrations like the World Cup possible. Six of the players on the US Men's National Team are immigrants.
We will not allow ICE or anyone else to sow fear in our communities — especially at this moment. As the world comes to our city, we will stand proudly with our immigrant neighbors and reject these attacks for what they are: an attempt to divide us.
