A woman has been arrested after injuring three people in the third knife attack recorded at schools in Poland this week.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

The 21-year-old used a “dangerous object” to attack a 17-year-old girl at an educational institution in the capital Warsaw, police have told news agencies PAP and AP.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It comes a day after thousands of police visited schools across Poland following two stabbing attacks earlier in the week, one of which killed a female caretaker.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

A Warsaw police spokesperson said they could not confirm whether the latest incident was related to the two previous attacks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Authorities told local media that the 17-year-old injured on Saturday had been taken to hospital, but her condition is not life-threatening. Two other women aged 17 and 24, who had come to submit enrolment documents were also injured, the state news agency reported.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Police told local media that the suspected attacker was a student at the school and initial findings suggest she did not know the three victims.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Schools in Poland had been stepping up security following knife attacks at schools across the country on 7 and 8 October. Polish police said they had arrested 76 people after deploying to schools across the country.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

“When it comes to the safety of Polish children and peace in our schools, there is no room for compromise,” Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said ahead of the operation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Local media, citing a police spokesperson, reported authorities had information to suggest incidents this past week could be related to an internet challenge.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

On Wednesday, a 19-year-old student attacked and injured nine people at a vocational school in the central Polish province of Mazovian.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

A day later, a 37-year-old caretaker was killed after a 15-year-old entered a primary school in Leszczyd\u00f3\u0142-Nowiny, north of Warsaw.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Interior Minister Marcin Kierwi\u0144ski also said a 17-year-old was detained in the town of Sierpc, north-west of Warsaw, after allegedly stating “on school grounds that he planned to do something… dangerous – that he intended to harm someone”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n
