. Nine people stabbed on a train? It's like something out of a bad movie. I need to see some footage or witnesses coming forward before I start jumping to conclusions about the motives and circumstances behind this attack. And what's with the 'appalling' crime comment from the PM? Is that supposed to be an official statement or just his opinion?

Just heard about this crazy train stabbing incident in Cambridge 
I'm still trying to process how something like that can happen on our daily commutes. It's just so senseless and terrifying for the victims and their families... 
2 arrests have been made, but it'll be a while before we know the full story behind this heinous act 
. It's crazy how quickly things can escalate into chaos. We need to figure out what went wrong here so we can prevent something like this from happening again in the future 
just heard about this train stabbing incident in Cambridge 
I'm not saying security measures aren't good enough, but it's like they're not keeping up with the threat level? 
can't help but wonder if we'll ever feel safe on public transport again 
can't believe someone would do that to innocent ppl 
need better security measures on trains like, stat! 
feeling for all those people affected 
and get some answers about what led up to it... how can something like this happen on our trains?!
