British police say a man has been stabbed at one of London’s main mosques.
The Metropolitan Police force says officers were called this afternoon to the London Central Mosque near Regent’s Park.
The force says officers found one man with stab wounds and paramedics treated him at the scene before he was taken to a hospital. There is no immediate word on his condition.
Police say another man was arrested at the mosque on suspicion of attempted murder.
On Twitter, mosque-goers post images of police holding a man down on the mosque floor.
Witnesses say the injured man was the mosque’s muezzin, the person who calls Muslims to prayers.

Hate to say it, but Mohammedans are getting the taste of their own medicine.
Where in the story is there anything about the stabber being Caucasian? Where did the headline writer get that from? But assuming it’s true, most Caucasians are Moslem, so this guy was probably a congregant. Maybe he just didn’t like the muezzin’s chazonus. When I think of some of the chazonishe “performances” I’ve sat through I can sympathize.
Or maybe he heard the muezzin say something that he thought was apikorsus, so he thought “What Would Mohammed Do?”, and stabbed him.
