London: A suspected acid attack at a London school left two teenagers in hospital Tuesday, one with potentially life-changing injuries, police said.
Three people in total were injured when a substance was thrown at students and a staff member on Monday afternoon.
"Tests of the substance are ongoing. At this stage officers believe it to be acidic," London police said in a statement, which noted a 14-year-old girl's injuries "may potentially be life-changing".
"Urgent enquiries are under way to identify and arrest those responsible."
A 16-year-old boy, whose injuries were not life-changing, was also in hospital, after the incident at the Westminster Academy school.
