A knife-wielding man stabbed a woman in Sydney, Australia and tried to attack “multiple people” before he was apprehended, police said. | |
Video from the scene shows a distraught male yelling “Allahu Akbar!” as he jumps on the roof of a black car at an intersection. The vehicle then flees and the attacker jumps on the ground shouting: “shoot me!” | |
“F**king shoot me in the f**king head! I want to f**king die!,” he screams running back and forth at the intersection, while another man tries to tackle him with a chair. | |
He is seen holding a knife in his right hand and his shirt was covered in blood. | |
A while later, a group of bystanders and firefighters – who happened to be nearby – managed to pin the assailant to the ground and hold him down with a crate and a pair of chairs until police arrived to arrest him. | |
Praising their actions, superintendent Gavin Wood said: “To approach a person, with clear evidence of a stabbing, these people are heroes.” | Praising their actions, superintendent Gavin Wood said: “To approach a person, with clear evidence of a stabbing, these people are heroes.” |
