A scary video emerged after the incident, showing panic on streets and major police presence at the scene. The clip showed several police vehicles were high beams and people standing on the side.

It is unclear how many people were stabbed.

Rail services on the route are likely to take a hit, with delays up to 60 minutes or revision in timings expected, BBC said in a report.

The Cambridgeshire Police reportedly received a call regarding a stabbing incident on the train headed to Huntingdon. The train was stopped and two men were subsequently arrested.

While there is no official clarity on how many were stabbed, multiple people have been hospitalised, reported SkyNews.

The British Transport Police (BTP) also reacted to the stabbing and said that officers were assisting the Cambridgeshire Police in responding to the incident. “We are currently responding to an incident on a train to Huntingdon where multiple people have been stabbed. Officers are in attendance alongside @CambsCops and two people have been arrested,” the BTP said in a tweet.
