The Metropolitan Police said officers were initially called to reports of a vehicle being driven into a house. “The shrieking sounded like the police – you know when they are ordering someone to stop or to get on their knees or something – it was like that.“I looked out the back window because the noise was coming from back there, I saw a bloke dressed in yellow jumping over some fences … then he went down an alley like he was going back onto the street again.
“I then heard a voice say something like ‘she’s been stabbed in the face’ or ‘we need assistance’ – you know, calling for medical back-up.”The London Ambulance Service said it treated five people at the scene and all five were taken to hospital. “The police officers and emergency services showed the best of our city - running towards danger to protect others and I thank them from the bottom of my heart.
