Police have arrested a man on suspicion of attempted murder after a prayer leader was stabbed at a mosque in central London.
Officers were called to the London Central Mosque near Regent's Park just after 3 p.m. local time, and found a man in his 70s with stab injuries, London's Metropolitan Police said in a statement.
The victim has been taken to hospital and his injuries are not life-threatening, said police, who are not treating the incident as terror-related.
Images and videos posted to social media appear to show officers restraining a man in a red sweater on the floor of the mosque.
