Counterterrorism officials are investigating after a suspect went on a rampage in Scotland<\/a>, leaving five men injured.<\/p>\n

The attacks, which are believed to have been anti-Muslim, began near a mosque in Edinburgh where two men were injured just before 9 p.m. Friday, officials said, according to BBC News<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The suspect, who is a 36-year-old Scottish man, also allegedly attacked three other men in another part of the city.<\/p>\n

None of the victims, who range in age from 22 to 39, have life-threatening injuries. Three of the victims were taken to the hospital.<\/p>\n

The suspect also allegedly attacked a car at a gas station, which was found with its windows smashed out and an axe inside, and he was seen pushing down shelves inside the station\u2019s mart, BBC News reported.<\/p>\n

He was also caught on surveillance video allegedly on the attack outside a pizzeria with a weapon, the outlet reported, adding that social media videos show havoc in other areas of the city as well.<\/p>\n

“Officers responded to multiple reports of a fast-moving sequence of events across Edinburgh before arresting a man and public safety<\/a> was our priority,” Police Scotland said in a statement.<\/p>\n

The man was taken into custody around 9:30 p.m. local time and he remains there.<\/p>\n

“This was a shocking attack<\/a> and my first thoughts are with those who were injured and most directly affected,” Assistant Chief Constable Catriona Paton said.<\/p>\n

She added, “I want to send a clear message of support to all our communities that there is no place for racism or faith-based hate in a Scotland which is at its best when we stand together.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

The suspect allegedly told police when he was caught that he was “protecting the country,” BBC News reported.<\/p>\n

“Extensive work is ongoing to establish all the circumstances,” Paton said. “We are being supported by Counter Terrorism<\/a> Policing and working under the direction of the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service.<\/p>\n

The Muslim Council of Britain condemned the attack, saying the community is “rightly nervous and worried.”<\/p>\n

“This incident comes not long after racist pogroms on the streets of Belfast that targeted minority families, and is a direct consequence of political rhetoric that demonises entire communities,” the council added. “To our community: stay vigilant, look out for one another, and please report any Islamophobic hate crimes<\/a> to the police.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
