Suspect 'yelled out bomb warning' Suspect 'threw bomb from Jeep'
(about 3 hours later)
A Glasgow airport worker has told a jury how an alleged terrorist turned to him and shouted: "There are bombs." A Glasgow airport worker described in court how an alleged terrorist threw a petrol bomb at him from a Jeep.
Henry Lambie said he thought there had been a road accident when a Jeep crashed into the terminal building. Another man told Woolwich Crown Court he broke a leg fighting the suspect, alleged to be Dr Bilal Abdulla.
The former firefighter told Woolwich Crown Court he ran towards the burning vehicle with a fire extinguisher. Prosecutors say he was a passenger in the Jeep which was packed with explosives and rammed into the airport.
Doctors Bilal Abdulla, 29, from Paisley, and Mohammed Asha, 27, from Newcastle-under-Lyme, deny conspiracies to murder and to cause explosions. Dr Abdulla, 29, from Paisley, and Dr Mohammed Asha, 27, from Newcastle-under-Lyme, deny conspiracies to murder and to cause explosions.
Mr Lambie, who was working as a passenger assistant, said thick black smoke quickly began to fill the building. The court heard that the area was engulfed in flames when the Jeep's driver poured petrol from a window shortly after it crashed.
He said: "On the forecourt I saw this big Asian-looking guy who had obviously been in the car. One of the attackers had later shouted: "There are bombs", the jury was told.
"His clothes were shredded and he was having a few punches at the uniformed policemen. Taxi Marshall Ian Caldwell told the court he was one of the first people at the scene on 30 June last year.
"Now I know it was an off-duty police officer with a fire extinguisher training it on him. He was put out by that time, I did not see him on fire."
Fatal burns
Kafeel Ahmed died from his burns a month after driving the Jeep into the airport building.
The prosecution says Dr Abdulla was a passenger in the car, while Dr Asha is alleged to have provided money and advice behind the scenes.
Mr Lambie told the court that when he used his extinguisher to try to damp down the building, an Asian man had approached and told him to stop.
"I thought he was going to have a go at me so I hit him in the face with the jet of water. I thought he was on drugs or something. He just could not focus on me."
Mr Lambie said two police officers had run over and ordered the man to step away from the car but he had run off.
"I said 'Get back'. He pointed towards the vehicle and said 'There are bombs'," said Mr Lambie.
Failed to detonate
The court has previously heard that the device in the Jeep failed to detonate and that Dr Abdulla was arrested at the scene.
Two other car bombs - allegedly planted by Ahmed and Dr Abdulla - had also failed to explode in London's West End in the early hours of the previous day.
Prosecutors say that when those attacks failed, the pair left London for Glasgow intent on killing both travellers and themselves on what was the airport's busiest day of the year.
Taxi rank marshall Ian Caldwell told the court he was one of the first people at the scene when the Jeep hit the terminal.
He said: "I heard a lady screaming and I turned around and by that time the Jeep had already hit the main doors offset."
'Molotov cocktail''Molotov cocktail'
As he approached the Jeep, Mr Caldwell said the passenger opened his door and threw a "Molotov cocktail" towards him. He said: "I heard a lady screaming and I turned around and by that time the Jeep had already hit the main doors offset."
"At first I didn't realise what it was. It actually hit the ground and there was a surge of heat." As he approached, Mr Caldwell said the passenger opened his door and threw a "Molotov cocktail" towards him.
"At first I didn't realise what it was. It actually hit the ground and there was a surge of heat," he said.
Mr Caldwell said he watched the driver pull out a five-gallon container and pour petrol from his window.Mr Caldwell said he watched the driver pull out a five-gallon container and pour petrol from his window.
"The flames from the cocktail were already there, and everything was engulfed," he said."The flames from the cocktail were already there, and everything was engulfed," he said.
"That's what made me actually step back and the chap that was driving then opened the door and collapsed in a heap outside the vehicle." He said the driver, Kafeel Ahmed, was on fire and got out of the Jeep before collapsing. Ahmed, 28, died a month later from his burns.
He said the passenger then ran into the terminal building. The prosecution claims Dr Asha had provided Ahmed and Dr Abdulla with money and advice behind the scenes.
Punches exchanged
Michael Kerr said he had just returned from holiday with his family when he saw a man fighting with a police officer and ran to help, exchanging punches with the suspect.
He told the court: "A tooth was knocked out - a crown was knocked out - by a punch.
"My leg was broken, my fibia and tibia. I don't know if it was a kick from him or me kicking the man. It was just a clash."
Mr Kerr spent four days in hospital and had steel rods inserted to mend his leg.
The court has previously heard that the device in the Jeep failed to detonate and that Dr Abdulla was arrested at the scene.
Two other car bombs - allegedly planted by Ahmed and Dr Abdulla - had also failed to explode in London's West End in the early hours of the previous day.
