A teacher and two pupils were hurt in a serious knife incident at a Manchester school, now under a major police investigation. Maysum Abdullah, 27, was stabbed in the neck and hand on Tuesday morning while protecting students at Co-op Academy Manchester. A 14-year-old girl was arrested, and counter terrorism police are now investigating, but they've stressed it's not a terror attack.
