San Francisco, Nov 23 (TIWN) At least two people were killed and multiple others injured in a stabbing attack at a church in the US state of California, police said.

The stabbing happened at Grace Baptist Church in San Jose, where police said on Twitter that no services were taking place.  “Unhoused individuals were brought into the church to get them out of the cold,” the department tweeted.  It was unclear exactly how many people were wounded, but some of the injuries were life-threatening, police said.
