Ex-minister Stephen Timms stabbed at constituency event

Former Labour minister Stephen Timms is in hospital after being stabbed.

Police said Mr Timms, 54, was stabbed in the stomach at a constituency event in Newham, east London, but stressed his injuries were not life-threatening.

A 21-year old woman has been arrested after the attack at about 1500 BST but police have not given further details about what happened.

Mr Timms served at the Treasury under Tony Blair and Gordon Brown and was recently re-elected as MP for East Ham.

The MP is reported to be sitting up in Royal London Hospital and talking to staff.

I can’t find any info on the woman who stabbed him.
