THIS is the dramatic moment armed cops swoop on a ‘knifeman’ seconds after a bloodbath knife attack that left an American woman dead and five injured.
Six officers are seen surrounding the Norwegian-Somali suspect after he was brought down with a taser near Russell Square, central London.
Hotel guest Chanel Britton, 19, of Barnsley, caught the action on her mobile phone in central London last night
She told The Sun: “We had just got back and were sat having a drink at the window. Then we saw this man run down the street followed by police with their guns out”
Chanel added: “He was a black man in a white t-shirt. They were on the floor for about 40 minutes”
The teenager was finally nabbed outside the Clarendon Hotel after running away down Bedford Place.
Police sources confirmed the attacker hailed from Norway and is of Somali descent.
CBS News in America have identified the attacker as Zacharia Bulhan, citing US law enforcement sources, but the Metropolitan Police have yet to comment.
After speaking to his family, searching his home and working with MI5 and MI6, police sources added that he has shown no signs of radicalisation.
The dead woman was confirmed as an American tourist while the injured were British, Australian, Israeli and American.
She died at the scene while being cradled by a group of Spanish tourists who rushed to her aid late last night.
The victim, in her 60s, was knifed in the back while five others were injured during the “spontaneous” attack.
As she lay dying in the arms of her desperate rescuers, she warned: “He’s still here, he’s still here.”
Hotel guest Chanel Britton, 19, of Barnsley, caught the arrest on her mobile phone.
She told The Sun: “We had just got back and were sat having a drink at the window. Then we saw this man run down the street followed by police with their guns out.
“I went out and they shouted ‘get down’ but he carried on running. They shot him with a taser and he fell to the ground.
“He was a black man in a white t-shirt. They were on the floor for about 40 minutes.
“There was a lot of screaming.”
