A man has been arrested after three people were attacked with a sword in a 'terrifying' rampage this morning. Two police officers and a member of the public were injured after reports a car had driven into a home in Hainault, east London , just after 7am on Tuesday. Footage posted on social media appears to show a sword-wielding knifeman being approached by officers. Metropolitan Police later confirmed a 36-year-old man had been arrested. They are not looking for more suspects in relation to the ordeal and that the attack 'does not appear to be terror-related'. Locals told MailOnline how they woke to sounds of 'piercing screams' and a man 'covered in blood' outside their homes in the Thurlow Gardens area.
