A teenager was arrested Monday in the suburbs of Sydney, Australia after a stabbing attack left a Christian bishop and several others wounded inside a church, Australian police said. Police said later that a 15-year-old boy was detained over the stabbing, which shocked people who were watching the bishop deliver his service both inside the building and via a livestream offered by the church.
New South Wales acting assistant police commissioner Andrew Holland said the suspect was being treated for wounds to his hand. The teen was taken by police to a secure location after the attack, which sparked an angry gathering of church supporters outside the building.
The police said earlier that officers were deployed to an address in the town of Wakeley, "following reports a number of people were stabbed."
