Police Sirens: Attack and London Authorities

police sirens: London Mayor Sadiq Khan reinforced that view Sunday, underscoring that hate crime has no place in London, according to Metro News. Authorities have arrested four men and two women, all in their 20s, on charges of attempted murder in the attack that left a 17-year old Kurdish-Iranian hospitalized with a fractured skull and a blood clot on his brain. Nonetheless, the attack Friday has prompted shock among many in Britain's diverse, multi-ethnic society. Police say eight youths approached the teen at a bus stop Friday night. The attack only stopped after bystanders intervened and police sirens could be heard. Upon learning he was an asylum-seeker, they chased him through the streets and beat him.
