Police in London said the victim killed in a stabbing attack Wednesday is an American woman, but her name has not been released. 5 other people were injuried in the attack that investigators1 say appeares to have been motivated by mental illness, not terrorism. The suspect, identified as a 19-year-old Norwegian of Somali origin, was taken into custody2.
