A British lawmaker was shot and stabbed in her constituency in northern England on June 16, Channel 4 News reported.
Media
reports said Jo Cox, who is from the opposition Labour Party, had been
attacked as she prepared to hold an advice surgery for constituents in
Birstall near Leeds, that another man had been stabbed and a gunman was
at large.
BBC radio reported that Cox had been taken by air ambulance to a nearby hospital.
There was no immediate comment from West Yorkshire Police.
British
lawmakers are currently not in parliament ahead of next week’s
referendum on whether Britain should remain in the European Union.
