Brave Train Staff Member Endures Severe Injuries Amid Multiple Stabbing Incident on Express Service
A courageous railway staff member who intervened to protect travelers during a multiple knife attack on a high-speed train has suffered critical wounds, authorities stated on Sunday.
Details of the Terrifying Incident
CCTV footage allegedly shows the staff member trying to halt the assailant as the train traveled between Peterborough and another station in Cambridgeshire. Witnesses described a terrifying 14-minute duration after the train left Peterborough, with bloodied victims fleeing through compartments.
The individual, a 32-year-old British national from Peterborough, remains in detention for questioning. Police declared a significant incident on the 6:25 pm service from Peterborough to King's Cross in downtown London.
Emergency Reaction and Consequences
The event on Saturday night resulted in 11 people being cared for in hospital after the train made an unplanned stop at platform 2 in Huntingdon. Several individuals have since been released from hospital.
A witness recorded the suspect brandishing a large knife and being subdued with a Taser as he faced officers on the platform. He was reportedly heard shouting, "End my life, end my life."
“This terrible incident has affected many people. Our sympathies go out to the injured and their loved ones – especially the courageous member of rail staff whose family are being supported by trained personnel,” said a senior police officer.
Union Response and Calls for Measures
Train unions were swift to praise employees and call for increased action. A labor official said he would be “requesting urgent discussions with government, train companies and law enforcement to ensure that we have the strongest available support, tools and robust procedures in place”.
Another association representative encouraged the train operator and government “to move swiftly to review security, to help the impacted employees, and to make sure nothing like this occurs again”.
Operator Praised for Quick Thinking
The train driver who stopped the train at Huntingdon was reported as being “very shaken” but “good”, and has been commended by union officials for doing “precisely what was needed”.
“The driver didn’t stop the train in the center of two stations where it’s obviously challenging for the emergency services to reach, but he continued traveling until he arrived to Huntingdon, where the response was almost waiting,” stated a union official.
Further Information
Police stated they received the first distress calls at 7:39 pm, and the service was compelled to make an unplanned stop in Huntingdon at 7:50 pm.
One observer recounted at first thinking if the event was a holiday prank, but quickly understood from people's expressions that it was real.
Authorities have stated there is nothing to suggest the event was a terrorist attack and have asked the public to come forward with any additional details.
Rail services on the impacted route are anticipated to have disruption until Monday, with passengers recommended to defer their journeys where feasible.
Anyone with details that could assist the inquiry are encouraged to reach police by texting a designated number with a case code.
