They say the man in his mid-20s was taken to a hospital.

Police had earlier warned residents to remain indoors as they hunted for a man dressed in medieval clothing and armed with a bladed weapon who had left “multiple victims”.

In a tweet, they had said that their initial information indicated the motive was personal.
