Four injured in Manchester synagogue attack, suspect shot by police

02 October 2025 14:24

Four people were injured on October 2 in an attack outside a synagogue in Manchester, as police responded to reports of a stabbing and a vehicle being driven into members of the public. The suspected attacker was shot by officers at the scene.

Greater Manchester Police (GMP) declared a “major incident” and activated PLATO, the national code used by UK police and emergency services in response to a suspected marauding terror attack, Caliber.Az reports via Sky News.

The incident occurred at the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue on Middleton Road in Crumpsall. Police said they were called at 9:31 a.m. local time (12:31 GMT+4) by a member of the public who reported seeing a car being driven toward pedestrians and a man being stabbed.

Firearms officers were deployed within minutes, and shots were fired at 9:38 a.m., striking a man believed to be the suspect. Paramedics arrived at 9:41 a.m. to treat four injured members of the public who suffered stab wounds and injuries from the vehicle.

Authorities have asked the public to avoid the area while the investigation continues.

The attack occurred on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, when worshippers visit synagogues and observe a 25-hour fast.
