Independent Reporters

A man is set to stand trial, accused of attempting to murder 10 people in a mass stabbing incident on a London-bound train.

A number of people were injured on an LNER train from Doncaster to London on the evening of 1 November last year.

The train was stopped in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire.

Anthony Williams, 33, denies 14 counts of attempted murder: 10 of them in relation to the LNER train, three said to have happened in Peterborough and one at Pontoon Dock DLR station in London.

At a pre-trial review hearing at Cambridge Crown Court earlier this month, he pleaded guilty to 10 counts of wounding with intent relating to the incident on the LNER train.

He also pleaded guilty to the wounding with intent of a man at Pontoon Dock DLR station in the early hours of 1 November and to the wounding with intent of a 14-year-old boy in Peterborough on 31 October, as well as a number of other offences.

He is due to stand trial on attempted murder charges at Cambridge Crown Court on Wednesday.
