London's police chief says two officers remain hospitalized a day after suffering “horrifically serious” injuries as they rushed to stop a sword-wielding attacker on a suburban street. Details about the attack emerged a day before London voters go to the polls in local elections where crime and the performance of the capital’s police force are major issues. Commissioner Mark Rowley, who leads London’s Metropolitan Police Service, applauded his officers for running toward danger as they responded to the attack in the northeastern London suburb of Hainault early Tuesday. The attack left a 14-year-old boy dead and four others injured, including the two officers.
