A third child died on Tuesday of injuries sustained in Monday’s knife attack as police questioned a 17-year-old suspect arrested minutes after the rampage.

A third child died on Tuesday and five others remained critically injured after a knife attack on a Taylor Swift-themed dance event in a quiet seaside community in northern England, police said.

The nine-year-old girl died in hospital early Tuesday, Merseyside Police said, as the force confirmed that two victims who died in the “ferocious” stabbing spree Monday were also girls, aged six and seven.

Eight other children suffered stab wounds during the attack in Southport, near Liverpool, which has shocked the UK and beyond. Two adults were also in a critical condition after being injured.

A 17-year-old male suspect from a nearby village arrested shortly after the incident remained in custody, police added, as they warned against speculating about his identity or details of the investigation.

“This incident is not currently being treated as terror-related and we are not looking for anyone else in connection with it,” Merseyside Police said in its latest update.

Hours earlier, US pop star Swift took to social media to say she was “completely in shock” over “the loss of life and innocence, and the horrendous trauma inflicted on everyone”.

“These were just little kids at a dance class. I am at a complete loss for how to ever convey my sympathies to these families,” she added on Instagram.

Visiting the scene of the attack to lay flowers and meet local officials, interior minister Yvette Cooper said police were pursuing “every single avenue” as part of “a serious criminal investigation”.

“This was a horrific attack,” she told reporters.
