The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) launched a "critical incident" after the assault, which was captured on video showing the attacker stabbing the victim while he was on the ground, with members of the public bravely intervening. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer condemned the "horrific" and "abhorrent" incident, expressing his thoughts for the victim and thanking first responders and intervening members of the public. Leaders of the five largest parties at Stormont issued a joint statement, condemning the "horrific incident" and calling for calm, while urging anyone with information or footage to assist the police investigation.
