At least four people were injured Thursday morning in a car and knife attack outside a synagogue in Manchester in the United Kingdom, authorities said.

Greater Manchester Police said officers were called at about 9:30 a.m. to the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue after a vehicle was driven into pedestrians and a person was stabbed. Armed police declared a major incident and opened fire minutes later, striking a person believed to be the suspect.

The attack came as Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, was ending.
