British police are saying that a Libyan refugee, Khairi Saadallah, is responsible for the terrorist attack in a park in Reading about 40 miles outside of London. Three people were killed and 3 injured.
The attack occurred on Saturday night where people were mingling in Forbury Gardens after the government lifted lockdown provisions. The attacks were apparently random and brutal.

The attacker seemed to strike his victims at random, police and witnesses said. One witness, speaking to the BBC, described the man moving from group to group stabbing people who were talking and drinking with one another in the park.
The police say the attacks were not connected to the Black Lives Matter protests held earlier in the day in the park.
Neighbors of Saadallah say he was recently released from prison and that he had no known mental health issues. Sources told Sky News that he had been granted asylum.
Is this another “known wolf” attack?
Saadallah’s full background has still to be revealed, but early indications are that he did come to the attention of security services last year.
He was briefly assessed and deemed to be low risk and no formal investigation launched.
A bystander described the horror.
Laurence Wort, 20, who was visiting Reading for the day, told the BBC he was about 10m away when the attack started.
