    and police declared the assault, which occurred on Yom Kipur,
    a terrorist attack. Two suspects have been arrested.

    An assailant drove a car into people outside a synagogue
    Thursday in northern England and then began stabbing them,
    killing two and seriously wounding three in a terrorist
    attack on the holiest day of the Jewish year, police said.

    Officers shot and killed the suspect, Greater Manchester
    Police said, though it took authorities some time to confirm
    he was dead because of concerns he had an explosive on him.

    The Metropolitan Police in London, who lead counter-terror
    policing operations, declared the assault a terrorist attack.

    Assistant Commissioner Laurence Taylor said two other suspects
    were arrested, though he provided no further information on
    the arrests.

    anyone near him. He went for the security guard and tried
    to break into the synagogue.rCY
